Lions winners of shirley read trophy

Senior Primary inter-house gala
The Senior Primary inter-house gala was held on Wednesday 19 February. Unfortunately, we had to suspend the gala because of inclement weather but we finished it the following morning. All the girls were given the opportunity to swim for their houses. They enjoyed competing against their peers, both in the individual and in the team races. The inter-house gala is always an enjoyable event. There is great camaraderie among the girls, and they have a lot of fun.

The awards for the individual swimmers in each grade were as follows:

Best Grade 4 swimmer – Maya Mgcina
Junior Victrix Ludorum – Caitlyn Dube
Best Grade 6 swimmer – Hannah Rigby
Senior Victrix Ludorum – Isabella Desfontaines

The house with the most spirit – Springboks
The winner of the Shirley Read Trophy, Best Open Race – Lions

The final scores for the inter-house gala were as follows:
1. Lions 370
2. Zebras 329
3. Hares 304
4. Springboks 284
