Week 1 - The journey has begun

The first week of settling into a new school and boarding community is never easy. For our new Year 7 and 8 Westwood boarders, they have done particularly well this week, navigating the many avenues of information sharing, classroom corridors and activity choices. Feelings of settled-ness are gradually setting in and the community is supporting one another as much as can be asked. 

The weekend typically brings time for rest, recuperation and relaxation, following a busy week at school. This Saturday, the Westwood boarders enjoyed the opportunity to (re)familiarise themselves with Bath city centre and its array of shopping delights! After stocking up on their tuck box supplies and enjoying important time with friends, our boarders relaxed into a Saturday night movie. This week, it was the comedy gem: Get Smart.

Today, sunshine blanketed Bath and so it was an ideal opportunity for our boarders to get out and enjoy this weekend's trip to Crazy Golf! With a variety of course challenges - requiring a keen eye and some good fortune - 18 holes were conquered by teams of boarders and staff. Everyone enjoyed themselves and managed to relax ahead of the second week of term. Do please take some time to enjoy the images below of our outing; we look forward to updating you again soon.

A fine afternoon for a spot of Crazy Golf...

...at least the Staff seem to think so!


Eye-ing the line carefully.




A momentary pause in proceedings for a photograph!

One shot made a water hole, but to whom is the ball being returned?
