What a spectacular way to end the academic year! 🎉🏆

This morning, our annual House of the Year Assembly brought the whole school together for one final showdown. Would it be the Falcons, Kestrels, Hawks, or Eagles taking the coveted House of the Year title? 👀

From celebrating achievements across every year group to recognising our Family First parent representatives and incredible House Captains, the morning was packed with excitement. The fun continued with team challenges, including balloon over-and-under relays and cup stacking competitions, filling the hall with laughter, teamwork, and house spirit.

And the winners are… 💚 KESTRELS! 💚 Congratulations on an outstanding achievement!

A huge well done to every student across all four houses. Your enthusiasm, determination, and commitment to earning points throughout the year have been nothing short of incredible. Thank you for making this year’s house competitions so memorable. What a fantastic finale to an amazing school year! 💙💛❤️💚
