Following their Long Leave Weekend, the boarders have enjoyed catching up with their friends this week. We have all settled into the boarding routine now, and our evenings have been filled with crafting, OK Play tournaments and some delicious waffles, lovingly made by Alex.

Shazam, there was no shortage of volunteers and enormous excitement in the Well as Block 5 (yr 11) student Rafferty Coope kept us spellbound by his unfathomable tricks! Bravo Rafferty, you are a truly gifted magician and entertainer with a stellar future ahead.

This week the boarders have made the most of the return of the summer weather by spending time playing outside as much as possible. This week, the evenings have been filled with relaxed social time. Last night, Ryan and the boarders made bruschetta for snack, which was great fun.
