What it means to be in Apollo House

Hi!

I’m Miss Tipping and this is my 4th year of being Head of Apollo House. Being a Head of House is a job like no other and I regularly find myself taking part in fun, challenging and sometimes utterly ridiculous competitions! In Apollo, we pride ourselves on being a positive and dynamic community where creativity, ambition, kindness, and enthusiasm thrive. Our students are encouraged to express themselves and aim high in all they do, whether it’s excelling in talent shows, showcasing their skills in ethos competitions, or competing in exciting creative showdowns. We also take part in weekly competitions to keep the spirit of fun and friendly rivalry alive throughout the year. 

Apollo House triumphed in the 2024 championship (beating Zeus by ONE point), showcasing our unbeatable spirit and teamwork! We secured our victory by dominating both the Talent Show and the Creative Showdown, where our students displayed incredible talent and creativity. From stunning performances by our gymnasts that left the audience in awe to innovative harmonies that wowed the judges, Apollo House proved that when we come together, we achieve greatness. This victory is a testament to the hard work, passion, and enthusiasm of every member of our house, and we are proud to have brought the championship home! 

To say I love my job is an understatement and I am incredibly proud of the vibrant and hard-working students and staff who make our house so special. Their creativity, ambition, and kindness inspire me every day, and it’s a genuine honour to lead such a dedicated group. I couldn’t be more excited to continue celebrating our successes together!

Can we lift that trophy again in 2025? I think so! 😊

LET’S GO APOLLO, LET’S GO!
