The annual Inter-House Athletics competition took place over two thrilling days, highlighting the incredible talent, determination, and team spirit of our students.

Inter-House Athletics is a much-anticipated event for Students to celebrate athleticism, competition, and school spirit, offering an opportunity for everyone to come together, engage in friendly rivalry, showcase their talents, and develop important life skills such as teamwork, resilience, and sportsmanship

Students engaged in events that demand higher levels of skill, strength, and endurance. From sprinting to long-distance running, and field events like javelin and shot put and long jump, the students showcased a range of physical abilities.
The events are designed to be fun and inclusive, ensuring that every student has the chance to participate and contribute to their team’s success.

Our Primary School athletes showcased impressive athleticism and sportsmanship, with Chapman House ultimately emerging as the overall winners, demonstrating excellence and consistency in every event.

In the High School, athletes competed fiercely on the track and field, delivering a day full of intense competition and remarkable skill. Sentinel House claimed the top spot, proving their strength across multiple disciplines.

Beyond competition and athleticism, one of the most significant aspects of Inter-House Athletics is the celebration of school spirit. Regardless of the event or the age of the students, Inter-House Athletics is an occasion to cheer for teammates, support peers, and unite as a school community.

A special mention must also go to Dungeon House, who won both Spirit Cups, thanks to their unwavering enthusiasm, energy, and support throughout the competition. Their passionate cheering and sense of unity perfectly embodied the spirit of the event.

Congratulations to all the athletes, houses, and supporters who helped make this year’s Inter-House Athletics such a memorable and successful event. We’re excited to see even greater achievements in the future!
