It's the highlight of the school year, a chance to show off your superior physical prowess in front of all your mates, while grabbing the glory for your house, and ensuring top-dog status for the next 3 terms. We take you back to a halcion age where British education was the envy of the world, where our lumpy rice-pudding layed the foundations of the greatest empire in history, and where schools welcomed their new recruits with the words, "we'll make a man out of you", (particularly the girl's schools).We're delighted to introduce
The PwC Assurance Scotland: School Sports Day
Postscript:-
After a titanic struggle, a battle of wits, of minds, of nerve, of physical endurance, and of utterly childish behaviour, we're delighted to announce the 2008 champions are the magnificent M&D House. Packed with talent, and possessed with an almost super-human ability to act as a single unified amorphous body, their victory included a win at the Plate Game, joint first place at the Cup Stacking, and a hard fought runners up spot at the Spud & Spoon race.
In truth, they had to be this good, as they were pushed all the way by the 'Save the Planet' specialists from Hughes Craig House, and the excellent all rounder from McCarthy House, who took home the silver and bronze medals respectively.
However, there can only be one winner, and to the victors go the spoils, and probably more importantly, the bragging rights for an entire year. M&D House - we salute you.
