Principal's Pen

The highlight of the week for me has been the annual House Music Festival where pupils in Years 7-9 inclusive competed against each other for the converted House Song Award. Aside from the coral competition, there were also house points available for the House Band, the House Soloist and the House Vocal Group.

The House System is, in my humble opinion, the greatest gift that British education has given the world. The House System provides pupils with a family within a family, and helps them to develop close friendships and a supportive network so they feel happy and safe within the College. This was clearly on display during the House Music Festival.

My congratulations to Scorpion on their victory and my huge thanks to the Music Department and the House Team for all the work and preparation that went into the event.

Have a wonderful weekend everyone.
