Weekend Archery

Mr Chua was a star and organised Archery for the boarders this Sunday.  There were so many people who wanted to have a go, 2 sessions were set up.
























Weekend Yoga

Miss Elliott ran a new session this weekend which due to its popularity looks like it might be a regular thing.  The girls from Summerhill joined her in doing yoga.  We're hoping more boarders will join her next time.

Burn's night meal and Ceilidh

Tonight saw the annual Burn's night meal of Haggis, Neeps, Tatties (and chicken).  The bagpipes were played as the haggis was piped in to the dining room.  Mr Duke said a toast to the haggis.  It was royally sacrificed and taken through to the kitchen to be served.  A superb meal followed by the boarders trying to blow enough air into the bagpipes to be able to play a tune.  After a toast to the Lasses followed by a reply to the Laddies, we retired to the sports hall to have a ceilidh.  We finished with a rousing chorus of Auld Lang Syne (which the boarders still need to learn the words to!).  All agreed that it was an excellent night.  One which we look forward to every year.
