Many of our House Captains and Leaders achieved remarkable success this year outside of the House System at EMS. Three noteworthy examples of this are Year 12 House Captains Majd Hamdan and Karim Elsaid, who were the House Captains of Yellow and Red Houses respectively, who were members of the Men's Under 19 Football Team which went undefeated and won the QUESS League Title. Majd was also a Captain of this Team. Additionally, Fatima Talkhani was an Officer and a key member of EMS remarkable Model United Nations Delegation.
