Some recent news

Congratulations to our Head of House who today passed his driving test.  Well Done Tom!

 ...and our year 9 boys demonstrate how to do a year group shot, "Hall" style!

Another couple of pictures of our year 9 boarders on the camping trip below.

Year 9 Camping trip

Our year 9 boarders spent Saturday night camping in the Forest of Dean under the watchful eye of Mr Davies, Miss Wright and Mr Chua.  As you can see from the photographs below it looks like the boys had a lot of fun.

Welcome back to everyone

It's good to see that everyone has arrived back safely and have all settled back in to life in Hall.  We welcome our eight new year 9 boarders who are a great addition to the house.

Tonight was House Music.  Below are some pictures from the day which culminated in the performance this evening.  The boys sang and danced with the girls from Fonthill our sister house, a mash up consisting of the Weather Girl's classic, "It's Raining Men" before going into Queen's, "We Will Rock You" via "Albatross" (NOT the Fleetwood Mac classic!)
The performance of "Riptide" by Vance Joy was performed by a group of girls and boys from the houses beautifully sung by Issy and Ed - definitely the most moving performance of the evening.
Congratulations to Middle and Summerhill who won the overall competition.

Our year 13 leavers

The final House entertainment took place last night.  After the disappointment of the cancelled Sports Day, we were able to celebrate the end of year when the sun came out in the evening.  Enjoy looking at the pictures above!

House Athletics

Sadly, the Senior Sports day had to be abandoned due to an horrendous downpour. However, before the heavens opened we were able to watch several of our boys run superbly in the 1500 and compete in the long and high jump.

Hall House barbecue

The sun shone today so we had a barbecue!  The boys then had fun chucking the rugby ball around in the garden after eating. It is great being able to make the most of the fact we can now open the house doors to a garden - another benefit of this great new boarding house.

KATS

Last night was the KATS (Kingswood Artistically Talented Students) awards evening for all of the students who study the creative arts subjects at GCSE or A Level.  Hall House was well represented as can be seen from the photographs below. What was particularly pleasing was it wasn't just the fact we had so many students there but also that we had a number of nominees and winners. Well done to everyone involved in one way or another.
