There were some outstanding performances in the competition this year, with Jonathan Honor, Matty Nordin and Lily Baxter all scoring 19 out of a possible 20 points; and Becket’s Lower School team scored a full 50 points out of 50, answering correctly all ten ‘tricky questions’ within the 20 minutes time frame in the team challenge. Well done to Chloe Sumner, Timon Staehler and Patrick Mridha on this excellent achievement.
