The penultimate week of the half-term has come to an end; it has been a busy weekend for our boarders. After the dizzying heights of the annual Green Park Concert celebrations on Friday evening, Saturday brought a little respite with town shopping and the Saturday night movie: Mortal Engines. A post-apocalyptic tale of predatory city machines, Mortal Engines was a dramatic conclusion to the day and a film enjoyed by all.
Today, our boarders became mortal engines of a sort, preparing for an afteroon of Battle Archery at Avon Valley Country Park. Needing courage, character and a degree of strategy, our boarders engaged in team battles and adventure, demonstrating a hardiness that would otherwise have remained hidden. Please enjoy the pictures below capturing the course of the afternoon. We hope you enjoy perusing them and look forward to updating you shortly on events bringing the half-term to a close. Until next time...
