Fun around the house!

Yesterday our boarders were able to do as they pleased around the school. We had quad bikes come in for some fast fun around the front field as well as some bouncy castle games set up in the gym. The tennis courts were used all day by those who wanted a run around as well as the cricket bats. A swim was held for those who wanted some splashing fun and the year seven girls opted to hold a beauty salon in their dorm where hand and foot massages were available as well as hair and makeup. A fun filled day around the school left our boarders nice and tired for bed last night with only five more days of school before half term!

Paintball in May

Yesterday the boarders were able to experience paintball without being three feet under mud! Although the sun wasn't shining, we still had lots of fun running around crazily under the cover of trees to aim paint bullets at our opposing teams. the juniors headed off earlier in the morning for their own little war with the assistance of Mr Garcia and Miss Sapsead. Everyone met back at school for a roast lunch before the seniors headed out for their turn with Miss Weir and the Gaps. With teams made, the children hid and covered and shot at each other in four intense rounds of paintball consisting of 300 bullets. After a fun afternoon everyone arrived back at school nice and tired and ready for bed and the coming week!

Raid, Raid, Raid!

This thursday night the sun was out so our activity was a wide spread game of raid on the front field. Three teams, the reds, greens and yellows were spread out and the objective was to run and get your colour card from another team! we had lots of fast runners and tactics made during the course of the game. The team that came out on top after 4 rounds were the reds! well done red team!
