Abingdonian 2018

76 The Abingdonian Once again, the year got off to a wonderful start with the announcement of another excellent set of public exam results for the boys in the house. The boys were then quick to show how well they could work together during preparations for the annual House Singing Competition. Unperturbed by the previous year’s slightly daring choice, Brooklyn Han had even more advanced ideas for October 2017. The mash-up of Uptown Funk and Get Lucky sung a cappella was the challenge and the boys rose to this with great motivation and belief. The final rehearsal was a triumph, although our final performance didn’t quite meet these dizzy heights and we had to settle for another joint fourth place once again! Special mention must go to Brooklyn Han for his drive, determination and sheer musical expertise as Director. There was continued success across the inter-house sports competitions, in an unprecedented year of competing with snowy conditions. On the ergos, the house kept up its fine reputation in both the U18 and U15 competitions. On the table tennis tables, Henry Lu, Archie House Reports Austin House
