Last week of Term one

I cannot believe that we have gotten to the last full week of Term One already - it seems like only the other day that we ended our holidays!
Last Sunday, the boarders' enjoyed a walk to Stourhead - an old English Manor - with Mr and Mrs Somerville. Once again it was an absolutely lovely day - we are all loving the sunny weather although it doesn't seem to last too long before typical English weather kicks in.
The walk included extremely beautiful scenery such as an old building that was used in the filming of 'Pride and Prejudice', and also a serene lake that made for amazing pictures during the trip.
It was almost like something out of a movie with the weather, the scenery, and the kids enjoying running through the trees and daffodils.
Overall, it was a relaxing two hours for both children and staff who enjoyed an ice-cream at the end!

 

Some amazing photography skills shown by Georgia Freeley, Ben Hadfield, and Paul Bostier!






                                     Teresa clearly thought this was the highlight of the day!



                                                     Perhaps a model in the making?


                      Absolutely picturesque scenery - I'm really beginning to truly love this country!






Wednesday's boarding house was the second disco of the term - this time it was 'Neon Night'!
We had a big influx of day pupils as the discos seem to be the most popular of the activities which added to the fun atmosphere of the night.
Everyone dressed up in at least one neon coloured thing, whilst others were completely covered with fluorescent clothing - it looked amazing!
St Bede's once again transformed into a disco with Mr Callow organising the lights, Mr Opie on sound, and DJ Wheatley controlled the tunes.
It was an extremely fun night, with everyone getting into the dancing and neon dress-up!
Hopefully the next disco will be just as big of a success :)
