Well done to Joe O, Georgie C, Maddi W, Eva O’D and reserve Cerys D in taking part in the Schools’ Challenge Quiz match against The Perse of Cambridge. This is believed to be the first time that a team from Gresham’s has reached the Inter-Regional stage since the competition began in 1978. The team actually took the lead at the very start of the match, but thereafter The Perse took a commanding lead and amassed over 1,000 points compared to our still respectable 200. This was no disgrace as The Perse have been national champions or plate winners every year since 2017, and have been national champions three times since 2014. Thanks too to Sophia W for helping out with the scoring.
