Ingleholme House

The Secondary School Athletics Carnival took place on 27 July at the College. It was a day full of enthusiasm and House spirit with record numbers of girls participating in both the seeded and unseeded events. The Ingleholme tent was decorated with a variety of green ornaments. All the girls participated in the 100-metre sprint and shot put and displayed their skill and energy. Ingleholme came second which is an astonishing achievement and next year we’ll be aiming for gold.

The annual Swimming Carnival was held at the school’s Aquatic Centre. With the opportunity to swim freestyle, backstroke, breaststroke and butterfly, we saw girls from all years participate with the utmost energy and enthusiasm, racing against their peers and fellow Houses. Ingleholme’s stand was decorated with posters and ribbons, and the girls cheered with enthusiasm throughout the entire event.

On 26 June, Ingleholme collaborated with Bennett, Goodlet and Lang for the House Charity Day. We worked with Make-A-Wish once again, a charity that makes the wishes of children with life-threatening conditions come true. Inspired by the charity’s Bake-A-Wish initiative, we ran a bake sale, selling individually packaged foods that complied with COVID-19 safety standards. This year we managed to raise more than $1,000. This was an amazing achievement and we thank all the Ingleholme girls who baked and all the girls who bought our products.

We would like to thank Miss Gardiner for her constant support and encouragement throughout the year. We would also like to thank House Co-ordinator Prefect Isabelle Croudace and the House Co-ordinators Ms Hibburt and Ms Skyba for organising the Houses and helping out with any queries. And finally, we would like to thank all of our Ingleholme girls for their enthusiasm throughout the year.
