The school rang with music all day during the House Music Cup competition held on Wednesday 11 April. House Music Cup offers the opportunity for competition between houses for individual musicians and small groups. This year was the biggest ever with 136 performances. Girls were adjudicated in two venues by Miss Georgie Cole and Miss Emily Mackie. Georgie is a Woodford House Old Girl and previous Student Head of Music. The overall standard was high with many students also completing an NCEA assessment with their performance.
