They have overcome problems and demonstrated a great deal of resilience.\u201d<\/p>\n\n\n\n<p>\u201cTo end the year on a high, we\u2019ve decided to run a virtual competition. Each day students will gain points for submitting their efforts and we&#8217;ll report the house scores every Wednesday.&#8221;<\/p>\n\n\n\n<p>\u201cWe\u2019re all extremely excited to see which house colours will be tied to the BES cups on the last day of term.
