We rounded off the first half of the Summer Term with an exciting Inter-House Big Word Game, with competitors from Years 7, 8, 9, 10 and 12 vying to create the longest Boggle words and spell the most complex vocabulary in front of a live audience.

The standard was particularly high this year, with several maximum-length words unearthed, and some highly impressive spelling under intense pressure.

Our congratulations to the four House Wordsmiths – Issy N (Waller), Calypso M (Clapham South), Talya R (Clapham North) and Sahi K (Hartley), and to our overall winners of the competition, the team from Hartley.

Thanks to Mr Butler-Huggins for organising the competition, and to Mrs New and Mrs Folan from the English Department in dictionary corner.
