HIGH SCHOOLS' QUIZ FINALS - 2011


St Theresa's captain
in the semi-finals

This prestigious event was hosted by Andrew Rabie on 03 August 2011.  The two Junior teams who won their respective matches were Gelvandale and St Thomas.  St Theresa's, the only primary school in the competition, were ousted by St Thomas after a valiant effort to stay afloat.  Woolhope, sadly, succumbed to Gelvandale.

The match between the finalists - Gelvandale and St Thomas was nail-biting at first, but St Thomas proved their mettle in the second half and finally raised the trophy in victory.  It was interesting to note that both teams answered their dam(n) questions incorrectly.
