Bolton is holding its own in house-games! Our most recent match against the other two boys’ houses was close. Dodgeball is a fast-moving game and there is little room for error. We managed to hold a second place position in both the Junior and Senior divisions while Harvey and Barnacle swapped first and third places over the two divisions. This created the agreeable position of status-quo. Bolton holds its overall (narrow) first place position as we move into 2013!

Aside from the competition I was very impressed by the boys’ good sportsmanship on the court. As I said in a recent house meeting, Bolton is truly a house of gentlemen this year.
After the games we had a nice community dinner.
