YEAR 11 VS YEAR 10

FOOTBALL MATCH

The loss wasn’t bitter.

If anything, it fit.

n what has quietly cemented it-
self as a graduation season tradi-
I tion, the Year 11 boys laced up for
their final football match against the
ever-eager Year 10s. There was no cer-
emony to it — just a ball, a pitch, and
the unspoken weight of an ending.

The Class of 2025 played with heart, ur-
gency, and the kind of chemistry only
years of shared boarding life can build.
But tradition, it seems, is a double-edged
thing. As with the classes before them, they
fell just short. The final score? 4–3. Again.

The loss wasn’t bitter. If anything, it fit.
There was something poetic in leaving
the pitch not as victors, but as seniors
handing the rhythm of school life over to
the next in line. And perhaps that’s what
made the moment land — not in tri-
umph, but in quiet acceptance. A match
lost. A chapter closed.
