Talbot's House

It's been a short week but there is much to celebrate, especially the fact it is barbeque season again; this week's celebration night was around the BBQs in the garden!

Firstly, there were some excellent reports last term and in amongst those George, Leo, Sasha.P and David gained a personal best for their effort scores. There will be a pizza night for all those with an average indicating an excellent level of effort next week.

On a similar vein, the fourth form was the best merit per person earners in the school last term and so went out for dinner to celebrate yesterday.

In music, Ben.W was part of the national youth choir training events in the Easter holidays and Harry G was invited to the senior level of it too.

In sport this weekend, Lennart and Arthur are part of the J16 crew that ahs been invited to represent the East region in a national event on Saturday.

There is also the Basher rowing event which includes Brady in the J15C boat

George is playing for Northampton Saints U17 at Leicester

In cricket,  Dan plays for the U15A and Kighty and Sports are in the 2nds.

Whilst we are on the sporting note, a huge shout out to Tom Crowson (OB 2016) who played for England Hockey U21 against Austria last weekend.

This weeks merit competition goes from the last announcement of merits at the house Quiz:

1: Jason, Ruslan, Tizian, Stephen, Dan, Oscar, Leo, Harun, Ben.K, hodges, Szeets
2: David, Dan, Ben.W, Luca, Nik, J.Lo
3: Brady, Kostya, Edwin, Lennart
4: Divine
5: Henry

A special mention goes to Divine who has gained an award for 75 merits this year and Jason who is stranded on 99!

This week's man of the week for adding to his national youth choir exploits with not one but two distinctions at grade seven for singing and the piano is Ben.W!
