This Week Merchant Taylors’ Building Victories in House Lego Writes Xander Mardle (Divs):

House Lego was an exciting event filled ambitious House teams all trying to build the tallest tower and largest shapes out of Lego. There was a tense atmosphere as the 25 minute build phase started and all the Houses got to work. In Hilles we were a small team of 6 people where our priority was height, with our tower being one of the few that didn't fall down at some point during the competition. At the end of the 25 minute build phase, we were asked to take our hands off, stand back and then leave for the judging. After the weekend we got the results, Manor in 3rd, White in 2nd, and Hilles in 1st. Overall it was a fun, yet intense, competition with a good atmosphere and a competition I would highly recommend for anyone who builds Lego. Thanks go to Mr Husbands for organising the event. This project was made possible via an award from the Clubs and Societies Fund, which is supported by donations from OMTs, Parents and Friends to the Headmasters’ Discretionary Fund
