Countdown Challenge at Lunchtime

Posted on 18th July, 2016

Lunchtime ‘Countdown’

 A special lunchtime edition of ‘Countdown’ has just taken place with Mrs Barlow and Miss George representing the English Department and Mr P Sherrington and Mrs Schofield representing Maths. Miss Tarleton and Miss Stubbs were scorers and adjudicators, with Mr Zivkovic in charge of the board and Mr Yeandle hosting the show.

The watching students eagerly tried to work out the answers and some students even bettering the team scores. As the game progressed the scores moved backwards and forwards and were so close a tie breaker was needed to separate the scores. The clock was ticking, time ran out to answer the final question - an anagram, everyone waited until Mrs Barlow shouted out the correct answer winning the game for English.

The final score was 27 to English and 26 to Maths !

Let’s hope we have more rounds in the future.
