Primary and Secondary Interhouse Competitions

Secondary Inter-house Events. The Inter-house competitions in the Secondary School on Friday 13th November were awesome. Han won the Quiz by 3 points. Tang won the Football, after a number of very closely contested matches. Qin came a very close second! The Golden Boot award was presented to TaeHon in Year 10.

Well done to all the players on your fantastic efforts. Special mention must be made of the younger players and the girls, who participated valiantly. Well done to the spectators for some excellent cheering.

Primary Inter-house Activities. The first PYP Inter-house football: the students seemed to get right into the spirit of the event and it was good to see some people helping out their house even though they don't like the sport.
