Last week Prep School pupils thoroughly enjoyed taking part in a ‘Housewarming’ event which saw them partake in a carousel of four activities. Mrs Mac inspired each House to create a House crest; Mrs Mitchell-Morgan rehearsed the singing of each verse for the new House school song; Mr Rowlands set up and lead a series of sports, team-building tasks; and Mrs Laker exposed the girls to some intriguing problem-solving tasks.

The afternoon was a wonderful opportunity for each house to come together and saw pupils forge new friendships as Sydsisters in either Grey, Shirreff, Stanley or Gurney. This week, Shirreff were announced as the house winner for this term and have been invited to wear red coloured accessories with their school uniform on Friday to celebrate their victory on the last day of this half-term.
