The children were incredibly creative over half term, resulting in some superb spooky pumpkins! Mr Oldroyd, with our Head Boy Edward and Deputy Head Boy Charlie, had the tricky job of judging the House Pumpkin Carving Competition. They were extremely impressed with the standard of all the entries.
We are delighted to announce the winners:
Pre-Prep: Leo (R), Sebastian (1G), Talia (2G)
Middle Prep: George (3R), Daphne (5R)
Upper Prep: Dulsie (7R)
Congratulations to all the winners, and a special mention to Lucia (5R) and Ben (3R) for their very creative designs. McCormack were the House winners overall!
