As term comes to its close, it was good to see the house get stuck into the Meynell Captains, Joe and Marie’s Christmas Quiz… ⁦@ellesmerecoll⁩

Great to see Meynell Captains, Joe and Marie, taking the lead on the rugby and hockey pitches and well done to the Inter Girls; their hard work made them hockey champions 2023! ⁦@ellesmerecoll⁩ ⁦@HPLedu⁩

A huge cast turned out for tonight’s House Play, the ‘Only Fools & Horses’ episode, Stage Fright. It was a surprising performance as the high lights came in the songs and choreography, two areas where we’ve struggled in the previous years…⁦@ellesmerecoll⁩

Congratulations to Yr 12 student, Charlie Boys, who has been selected to represent the England Golf regional squads for the 2024 season. Charlie was selected through trials held at Bromsgrove GC in September.

Meynell captains, Joe and Marie, are working hard to direct our House Play this year, an episode from Only Fools & Horses. Hearing the cast practise their singing was an ‘interesting’ moment in yesterday’s rehearsal… ⁦@ellesmerecoll⁩ ⁦@HPLedu⁩

Our Senior Girls fought hard, bowled fast and displayed their resilience as they whacked their way through to the indoor cricket final. Well played! ⁦@ellesmerecoll⁩ ⁦@HPLedu⁩

Great to see Terraces packed with new and familiar faces as Meynell’s Sixth Formers competed against the other houses…and won a few contests! ⁦@ellesmerecoll⁩

We managed to catch up with Best Cadet CCF Navy Lucy C to present her with her trophy and medal before she leaves us at the end of Year 13 for her services, leadership and teamwork during her time here at Ellesmere College and we wish her all the best in her future endeavours.

The horrible conditions in blocks & barracks as well as the appalling sanitary conditions contributed to the exhaustion and death of many prisoners. Listen to our podcast about living & sanitary conditions in Auschwitz: https://t.co/vuxHvv9vNb

Sometimes practice doesn’t make for perfection, but at least Meynell managed to turn the volume up during today’s House Singing rehearsal. Just two more practices and a dress rehearsal to go and then it’s competition night itself… ⁦@ellesmerecoll⁩ ⁦@HPLedu⁩

[Meynell_ellesmere @Meynellellesme1]

Captains, Charlie and Carmen, have been putting Meynell through its paces as the hard work and practice intensifies before House Singing next week… ⁦@ellesmerecoll⁩ ⁦@HPLedu⁩
