[vc_row][vc_column][vc_separator][vc_custom_heading text=”WEEKLY HOUSEPOINT AWARDS”][vc_column_text]It is with great pleasure and excitement that I announce this week’s Housepoint Awards that have been earned by our amazing Primary students throughout this term. They have continued to impress and work hard which is the reason why we are able to present our very first Head Teacher Housepoint Awards, earned from receiving 160 housepoints! This is an amazing achievement and we are all so excited to end the first term on a housepoint high! To make the celebrations even better, we presented Housepoint Awards to students in every year group throughout the Primary school! Keep it up Primary! We\u2019re proud of all your achievements!\u00a0<\/span><\/p>\n

All Houses have continued to work their hardest and produced some amazing work throughout our Online Learning, which has meant that all teachers have awarded impressive amounts of housepoints to all students throughout Primary. This week was no exception but we had a definite winner at the top of the leaderboard, the likes of which has not been seen at all this school year! Long may it continue!!<\/span><\/p>\n

 <\/p>\n

This week, the housepoints we awarded to each team was:<\/span><\/p>\n

 <\/p>\n

In 3rd place, with 292 housepoints is <\/span>Sapi<\/b>!<\/b><\/p>\n

In 2nd place with 347 housepoints is <\/span>Sulug<\/b>!<\/b><\/p>\n

In 1st place with 365 housepoints is <\/span>Gaya<\/b>!<\/b><\/p>\n

 <\/p>\n

Congratulations to Gaya Pangolins for clinching their first victory this term and this school year. It is long overdue but definitely well deserved! They steal this top position from the Sharks, who are knocked off after remaining there for 4 weeks! How will this shake up at the top affect the results in the overall term totals for all 3 Houses? It\u2019s not long now until we find out!\u00a0<\/span><\/p>\n
