The 1959 magazine reports that Powys House joined forces with Wilson House to become 'School House'. However, the 1960 magazine reports that it was disbanded when Powys and Wilson each became independent Houses.
Liz Mumford-Hall has supplied the photo of the Powy's House tie. The tie was green although, unfortunately, on the photo it looks more like black!

 Powys House Song
Taken from page 35 of the 1988 School Magazine – sung to the tune of Auld Lang Syne
We stand united as a House
Our Spirits will not bend,
For though it's a hard road to the top
We'll get there in the end.
Through Drama, Music, Work and Games,
Our spirits will not flee,
For even though we do not win
Good losers we will be.
And even if our hopes go wrong
Not one of us will grieve,
For we stand united for the
of Powys House.
House Staff - Mistresses, Matrons and Heads/Captains

In instances where the Head of House or House Captain is listed, but not the House Mistress or Matron, it is simply because the information is incomplete in the relevant magazine.
