What is the Inter-House Performing Arts Competition?

The House System provides the framework for healthy competition, not only for individuals own benefits but also as a contribution to the greater good of their house; the House system also plays a key role in creating our community spirit within the whole school.  There are four Houses: BLAKE, CAXTON, NEWTON & WOLFE. The Inter-House Performing Arts Competition is where pupils can compete in Drama or Music Categories on behalf of their house.  There are a range of categories including:

• Solo Monologues
• Duologues
• Shakespeare
• Musical Theatre
• Solo Instrumentalists
• Ensemble Playing
• Talent

Who can enter?

Anyone in Years 7-11 can enter the competition.  Often categories are age specific and the Drama & Music Teachers will inform pupils if this is the case.  Where the categories are 'solo', auditions and 'heats' occur to decide the final House competitors.

What can be won?

Points are awarded by the Judges to 1st, 2nd & 3rd places these points are added to the 'House' totals.

Gold Winners are awarded either Drama or Music Medals:
