Pankhurst win Dragons Den House Competition

by Vashti Turner  on January 29, 2017  in  House Competitions

Our second interim house competition of the Spring term took place on Friday 27th January during lunch time. Students were challenged to design and pitch a product to make household chores easier. Miss Williams, Mr Fitton and Miss Ormsby made up the panel of ‘dragons’ or potential investors. The competition stretched students’ creativity and entrepreneurial skills and there were lots of fantastic ideas pitched.

Each pitch was scored out of 10, the scores for each house were then added together to determine the winner. In first place was Pankhurst, who had a particularly strong pitch from Ahmed (9 Berners-Lee). As with all interim house competitions, the winning house received 2,500 house points.

Honeyball came second with a strong product pitch from Mo and Joe (9 Dyson). Honeyball took home 1,750 house points. Angelou and Franklin came third and fourth respectively.

Congratulations to winners Pankhurst, and thank you to the DT department for hosting such a great house competition.
