Half-Term

It has been a great term and there is a huge amount to be proud of. As a House we've worked very hard and had some encouraging success. However, it is only the start of the year and there is a great deal more to achieve.

Have a really good rest, ensuring you get lots of sleep. However, keep up the exercise, get some fresh air and certainly don't spend all your time in front of a computer screen! Read a book and spend some time reflecting on what you've done well this term and how you can improve after the holiday.

Div. Rugby

Div. Rugby was an eagerly contested affair with all four divisions putting in a huge amount of training in the build up to the event. With the 6^th Form leading the way and organising the teams, over 120 boys turned up on Whites to take part in the tournament.

The tournament was played using a combination of rules from rugby union, rugby league and touch rugby which took some getting used to. However, the teams quickly got used to the variations and produced some excellent rugby.

After a number of incredibly close matches, the 3^rd Form tournament ended up with Macquarie winning and PJ second. The 5^th Form tournament ended the same way but Hesperus took the top spot in the 4^th Form competition after it was decided by a ‘drop goal shoot out’.

This rounded off what has been an excellent half term and there have been a huge number of positives for the rugby club – especially the effort put in by players and coaches alike. Well done and enjoy the break!
