in 2001, Lilley House had some serious fun. With guts, grins and greenery, we took on the School and produced exciting triumphs in all facets of House life We began the year by welcoming our enthusiastic new team of Year 85 at the annual House Party, and Initiated them with unheard of quantities of green cordial and chocolate custard The competition for the coveted Miss Lilley is always tough, but Michelle de Plater managed to'wow'the judges with her display of humour, spirit and greenery and took out this year's competition The Year 85 were eager to show the rest of the House what they were made of, and succeeded in achieving

House once again took out the overall first placing for the day But the depth of the House did not end at our sporting prowess. Our cultural talents were on show when Drama Captains Zoe Brand and Megan Kelly directed Monty Pythont The Holy Grill, starring Alex Wilson, Claire Karrasch, Bellnda MCCrae and Annie Humphreys. The performance was one of Lilley's best, and a pleasure to both perform In, and to watch But this was only a 'warm-up'of things to come. it's no secret that Lilley House is not famous for its musical talents, but under the skinl eyes of Choir Captains, Sara Hills and Jane Humphreys, for the first time eve, the House managed to take second place

We also farewelled Mrs Edwards, our fobulous Head of House, who took leave to have her first child Mrs Edwards has been Head of House for over three years, and much of our success can be attributed to her support, spirit and endless supply of chocolate 2001 will particularly remain in all Lilley girls' minds, for various reasons maybe it'11 be for our sporting achievement, our cultural successes, maybe the deadly"Finger of Shame;' or maybe for all the fun and friendships that we made and strengthened. The Seniors would particularly like to thank Mrs Edwards, our Head of House, and Mrs Charles- Edwards who was more a friend than a House Group Teacher. We would also like to thank our other House Group Teachers - Ms Murray, Mrs Templeton-Knight, Ms SCOthern and MISS Salmon - for all their support during the year. My personal thanks to Claire Olive for her superior organization and friendship as Vice- Captain (you made my job so much easier), and to every Lilley House Group Senior for their reliability and spirit. Every Lilley girl can be proud of how successful and enjoyable the year was, and I wish you all the best for 2002
