What do I like about Crypt? Well of course there’s the enormous assortment of school Activities, ranging from music groups, to chess and even through to pretty much every sport imaginable. These clubs provide new skills, a chance to socialise with new people and also improve mental and physical health. Although, for me, the most important aspect of this is sport. Perhaps my greatest highlight of the year is when we take athletes from each year to participate in an inter-school competition of track and field events. Personally, I love basketball and play with friends every break and lunchtime, and I recently played in a tournament in Barcelona with some other Cryptians. However, sport isn’t everything; of course, we also have the academic side of school. I’m more of a humanities person. Geography, Religious Studies, History (especially history) are definitely the most enjoyable lessons for me. So in all, Crypt provides not only a fantastic education but also wonderful friends, exceptional teachers and most importantly, an experience I doubt you could have anywhere else.
