Week 4: Party in the Park

Following an expectantly busy working week, our boarders embraced the full array of sporting fixtures this weekend and eventually settled down to some 'down-time' on Saturday afternoon and evening. The allure of Bath city often provides boarders with a chance to replenish tuck supplies and enjoy the architectural beauty of a World Heritage Site; a pivilege indeed! Saturday evening's movie night was enjoyed by all. Pizza and Popcorn provided culinary reprieve from the high-octane action film: Rampage!

To a large extent, the high-octane theme continued on Sunday as boarders travelled to Thorpe Park: An island of theme-park pleasure! Boarders enjoyed time with friends and experienced a range of rides that proved scary and exhilirating in equal repose:


A lovely skyscape to welcome us all...
...enjoyed all the more with the lovely company of Miss Rolfe and Mrs. Curtis!

Our boarders weren't the only ones embracing the Thorpe Park spirit; below we can see Miss Rolfe and Mr. Peerless (Carriage 4) daring to meet the challenge of 'Stealth':


And here we see Max attempting to navigate a tricky rope ladder challenge (the lengths one would go to for a soft toy!).






Our boarders had a very enjoyable day; an opportunity to purge the trials of the week and simply be together. We are grateful for the support of staff this weekend and for the boarder's excellent behaviour throughout. It is on this positive note that we bring this week to a close and look forward to the week ahead. We wish our readers well and look forward to our next entry soon.
