Falcon House Newsletter No 13, 2008 Housemaster's First Half Term Report
	Sketch by Brent Dodd

Dear Parents

It is hard to believe that we have had five weeks of school and half-term is upon us. In this time we have seen the new boys settle into the House and the matrics getting to grips with their various portfolios.

There have been some very fine achievements during this time. We finished third in the inaugural Inter-House Music Competition. Our Senior Cricket team finished third and our Junior team finished fifth in the Senior and Junior Inter-House Cricket Competitions.

Graeme Heerden and Michael Tack have gained selection to the Midlands Under 19 Boys’ Tennis Team and Gunter Thetard has achieved qualifying times to compete at the South African Age Group National Gala. Christopher Ebert has been appointed Chairman of the Senior Foreign Affairs Society.

Graeme Heerden did the House proud at assembly this morning (13th of February), where he performed one of his own musical compositions. The response from the boys and staff was tremendous and it is great to see boys’ talents being recognised and appreciated.

I trust that you will enjoy the time with your son during this half-term break.
