Which House was Victorious?
As the rugby season nears its conclusion, we've witnessed some exhilarating house matches over the past weeks, spanning across Years 5-8. Week 4 and 5 showcased the true spirit of competition and sportsmanship among our students.
In a display of skill and determination, two tournaments were held at the Year 5 level, featuring both contact and touch rugby formats, with points allocated to respective houses based on performance. These points were then combined with the Year 6 event, culminating in an intense showdown between Amundsen and Bering. Despite a valiant effort from both houses, the rules stipulated a tiebreaker was necessary. Remarkably, even after evaluating head-to-head matchups, the houses remained inseparable! However, after assessing tries scored, Amundsen emerged triumphant, claiming the top spot.

The senior event witnessed fierce competition across the Year 7 and 8 categories, with each house fielding exceptional representatives. The culmination of the tournament resulted in a thrilling four-way tie, with all houses securing 5 points. Once again, the resolution came down to head-to-head results and tries scored. In an impressive display of prowess, Drake emerged victorious, boasting a remarkable 21 tries scored.
