What a momentous week, this week has probably been the busiest week of the term so far but also one of the best. Monday evening was the eagerly anticipated House Music competition and what a wonderful evening of music it was. All houses definitely raised their game this year and the standard across the board was superb. The unison song which involved the entire house was superb, it was brilliant to see the camaraderie and team spirit of the boys and they did themselves proud. The highlight of the evening was the Poole House Part Song performance. The boys involved have been incredible, rehearsing at every opportunity and it definitely paid off. The boys won the part song competition and the cheer from the rest of the House when it was announced was incredible, what an excellent achievement.

Winter is definitely coming or should I say already arrived, please could I ask that the boys make sure their coats are either school coats or plain black or blue.

Earlier this term we launched our JustGiving page with the aim of raising awareness and funds for MND association. We are aiming to Raise £10000 over the year. We have already raised an incredible £380. This is before any of our boys have started their sponsored activities. Thank you to those who have donated, and we look forward to the support of others in the future.
