Blackwater

BLACKWATER HOUSE REPORT Scarlett Fraser

As the days start to draw in and the murky winter falls upon the Blackwater girls, they have shown courage and resilience. The sun has started to shine through in spirit as the girls have excelled in every field.

I must mention that the Blackwater House Concert was a spectacle for all. With a fun mixture of Britney Spears on the big-screen and dances galore, it was a night to remember! The concert required drive and determination but the Blackwater girls, as always, had great energy which definitely paid off! A special thanks to our compères and the girls who decided to do solo acts - a brave achievement that enhanced the house ’ s talents and exhibited courage of all kinds.

Further to this, despite the rainy and dreary weather, house hockey will always be a salient event, especially as this year the girls were crowned 2022 winners! With the 1st team hockey captain, Orla Boulter, conducting a fierce group of girls to fight against the competitors, the drive clearly was worth it. These achievements will especially make housemistress Mrs Price pleased, as her sporting competitiveness will be satisfied!

Not only do these events show talent and enthusiasm but how fun Blackwater can be! As the house is gearing up for Christmas, I can only imagine that Christmas tunes will be blasting throughout the whole house as the girls prepare for endless amounts of fun, Secret Santas, Christmas dinners and the like. The Christmas mood will be at the forefront of all of the girls' mind without a doubt!
