SPORTS DAY!!!
Sports Day: Extremely close event with the winning house, Lions being just 5 points clear of 2nd place Panthers 945 - 940, with Leopards in 3rd place (853) and Tigers 4th (826). The Lions effectively won due to the number of students that participated throughout the day, and as a results deservedly were victorious.
These results were then added to the totals of the previous interhouse competitions, with Panthers emerging victorious, narrowly pipping The Lions by 15 points.
