Goose Weekend 2017

A pupil favourite, Michaelmas Goose, took place on a gloriously sunny weekend at the end of September. The inter-house competition provides the opportunity for each House to welcome their new incumbents and nurture a true community spirit with two days of fun and competitive events.

This year’s event was kicked off by the Actors of Dionysus who performed a contemporary version of ‘Antigone’ in the Old Gym. The weekend also included a hockey tournament, an inflatable obstacle course, dodgeball, a caving experience, bucking broncos as well as various quizzes and mini events in which the Houses accrue points.

The highlights of the weekend for many are Tug of War and the House Song competition. This year’s Tug-of-War took place in front of raucous crowds with Army House and Stevens House winning the boys’ and girls’ titles respectively.

This year’s House Song bragging rights went to House on the Hill (G) who performed High School Musical’s Breaking Free.
