At the end of the day, Tylos won yet again- the third time in a row! Congratulations to them. All house were very close together in terms of their score, with Gerrha in second place, tied with Dilmun and Ikaros coming a close third.
While not everyone may have won an award, the entire audience would agree that it was an extremely hard task for the judges to rank each house- surely theirs was the toughest job.
We are all proud of everyone that participated and won awards. However, all credits go to the Heads of Houses; Ms. Schipper, Dr. Myers, Ms. De Villiers and Ms. Rourke; without them, we wouldn’t be united in the first place. Special thanks obviously go to Mr. Marks who helped each team without being biased or unfair- helping us all to give our best. And of course, huge thanks to Olly and Ranna for making sure everything ran as smooth as butter.
