This week marked the age-old tradition of the House Conkers Competition at the Prep School. This year saw the addition of stings with house colours. The atmosphere was electric as the pupils took turns, swinging their conkers at each other in hopes of being crowned the ultimate conker champion! Our oldest images of the competition date back to the 1960s! It’s a testament to the enduring traditions that connect our pupils and create lasting memories at our School.
The results were:
1st = Crick with 48 wins
2nd = Parker with 38 wins
3rd = Whiston with 24 wins
4th = Storrs with 20 wins.
