At the end of day two, defending champions, the Hornets, emerged as winners after amassing 637 points compared to rival house, Chargers 596 points.

Other medalists included Division One Champions Jodain Brown and Deah Tatum as well as Division Three Champions Lavina Fredricks and Kaiden Stewart.

CSBPS Principal Claudette Lazzari expressed gratitude to the various stakeholders on behalf of participating schools. “Thanks to everyone who took part in making this day an enjoyable and safe event. Special thanks to the Royal Cayman Islands Police Service, the Health Services Authority Ambulance Service, the Public Works Department for setting up as well as coaches and interns from the Sports Department.”

Ms. Lazzari also thanked her school’s PTA for refreshment sales and staff and colleagues from all the Sister Island Primary Schools for their usual cooperation.
