2009 INTER-HOUSE CAMP
There was a tremendous unity within the different houses as they gave of their absolute best in order to come out on top.
House Snake lead by Lwandile Sithole and Che Stuurman-Moses came up winners, but it was their attendance that brought them down to third place overall.
Well done to the Tigers, lead by Rashied Abdullah and Liam Magerman, for winning the 2009 Winter Camp.
Although the Tigers are slightly ahead there is still however an Interhouse Competition on the 5th September, as well as the Summer Camp held on 04 December. All three events will be added together and the house with the most points will lift the coveted Samurai Helmet!
Good luck, and never give up!
