The Hopetoun win Upper Prep Sports Day

22 May 2018
Following our now traditional opening ceremony and parade of houses, all of Wellington’s Upper Prep school enjoyed a wonderful afternoon of track and field events. The competition was, as always, fierce between the five houses. Each pupil worked incredibly hard, knowing that getting that one position higher in their event meant one more point for their house at the end of the meet. In the end, this was exactly what it came down to… a single point.   Well done to The Hopetoun who, because of that extra bit of effort, managed to get the extra one point that meant that they could lift the House Cup! Congratulations to them, as well as the remaining four houses, on their sterling efforts and sportsmanship displayed throughout the day.   Nick Starbrook Director of Sport Wellington College international Shanghai
