Swimming
- Inter-House Gala 2011
We
held our annual Inter-House
Gala on Wednesday, 19 January
and it was once again a resounding
success. This gala has been
closely contested during the
last couple of years, but Bishop
House made a strong statement
that they are unequivocally
the best swimming house in the
school. In 2009 Bishop and College
House tied for first place.
Bishop House managed to win
by 34 points at last year’s
event, but they ran away with
it completely this year. We
want to thank the parents (past
and present) as well as some
of our past pupils for their
support.
The
final results were:
1st Bishop House 485 points
2nd College House 325 points
3rd Founders House 318 points
