Talbot's House

Joint House BBQ

Last Tuesday we hosted our joint day house, St peter's, for a barbecue to celebrate our winning start to the year in sports day and generally get to know each other a little better. The catering team from school did an amazing job with the catering and everyone had their fill!

It was then decided that a Day vs Boarding football match would be an appropriate would be an appropriate way to cross the divide and seal the friendship! the day house had greater firepower than the boarders and were also helped by legendary goalkeeping from Reni to take the scores to 4-1 to the day side. However, our boarding resilience, coupled with the ringing of the bell to call reinforcements brought the game back to 5-4 to the boarders. This was also helped by Sam P scoring a hat trick of own goals! Unfortunately the day side snatched a sneaky goal to allow themselves some respectability in a 5-5 draw.

It was a great occasion and made all the more memorable by Mrs Murray's eloquently crafted impromptu speech!!!
