Olympus shatters the competition !! ⚽️ πŸ€ πŸ†

The basketball game against the house of Leman was a triumph for Olympus. We doubled the competition in score ! Well done, boys.

Our team had some outstanding players, including Toma, Nigel, Waleed and Karim. We couldn’t have done it without them !

We played the house of Concha in a friendly game of football. We are happy to report we once again demolished the competition !!

We had to play on a particularly rainy evening, but everyone was quick to dry up when the game was over.

We couldn’t have won against the house of Concha without the stellar performance of Aoto, Ryunosuke, Marnix, Karim, Francisco, Omar and Max. Standing ovation for our winning players !

Ivan ready for the zip line at the accrobranche. Also being a great role model and following the guidelines on wearing the mask

 

First In-House competition. Making/flying paper planes.

It was the Hades God’s who’s plane, when put into use flew backwards. Good team effort though

It was the Gods from Apollo, who’s plane came second in the competition. Also very cool design.

The Ares gods who’s plane flew, but seemed to be a bit on the light side to be in the running with the Apollo or Dionysus gods

 

Dionysus Gods who mastered the design of their plane and came out the winners(WITH A LITTLE HELP FROM YOUTUBE) , our first house competition. Earning themselves 50 points.

Azeri Airlines, Captain Omar and Nico will be your pilots for the day.

Chocks away chaps

An extra 200 points for the god to make it through door of high school, unfortunately no one even came close.

 

 

House Competition

On Wednesday we had our first house competition. Each grade in the house gave themselves a name of a Greek god to climb mount Olympus. The challenge was to build a paper airplane and see which one flew the furthest off the balcony. Good looking planes boys!!!
