Westwood Boarders enjoy their second week

We have thoroughly enjoyed the company of our Westwood Boarders this week; it has been a busy and successful one. After some fine Saturday sporting performances and a trip to town with Mrs. Curtis, we enjoyed a relaxing evening in-house watching Guardians of the Galaxy Vol. 2. This was accompanied by pizza and popcorn, with the efficient and selfless support of our prefects, Lucy and Tom. Sunday brought a fresh and interactive challenge as we travelled to Hidden Woods, enjoying an afternoon of camaraderie and outdoor survival challenges!

Meet and Greet at Base Camp.
 
Briefing at Beech Camp. An afternoon of shelter building and fire making awaits...

Thank-yous and goodbyes. A challenging yet rewarding afternoon was had by all. We are delighted with the progress our boarders are making together and look forward to week three!
