HOUSEPOINT TOTAL
It was another close race between all three Houses in the Weekly Housepoint Championship as Primary worked hard to earn a collective 826 housepoints. Only a couple of housepoints separated the top spot and the championship is hotting up as we begin to look towards the end of the year and wait with baited breath to find out who will be our overall Housepoint Champions this year!
This week, F2 were victorious as the Class Champions! They earned an average of 7 housepoints per pupil for all their hard work! Well done F2! We are very proud of you all!
In the weekly battle, the housepoints awarded to each team was:
In 3rd place with 274 housepoints is Sapi!
In 2nd place with 275 housepoints is Sulug!
In 1st place with 277 housepoints is Gaya!
Our congratulations go to Gaya Pangolins who clinched another victory this week in Term 3!
