It feels almost surreal that I am writing the final newsletter of the first term already – how time flies when you are having fun! Looking back at the whirlwind/ busy eleven weeks, we have officially hit the last stretch – only two more sleeps until the holidays are here.

When the rugby posts go up, for some reason the campus becomes alive and the boys buzzing!
Sport happenings - the pitches, court and turf at different venues – so much busyness, too much fun!
Love-n-dar! Keeping those weekend vibes going with gorgeous aromas filling the air, the children spent their day, hand-crafting soaps in a dreamy variety of scents and fragrances (it enticed everyone in).

The children had a wonderful time creating their own lavender room fresheners - from start to finish. A hands-on activity kept them very busy on Saturday. There is something special about children getting to see a project, through the garden to the finished product. The pride and fun had, was lovely to see. And somewhere in between the busyness, the children swam (the water has definately got cooler)!

The weekend was a perfect mix of keeping busy and just enjoying the sun. After Saturday’s fixtures, we headed straight for the water; a chilled swim was exactly what was needed to cool off and hit the reset button.
The pace shifted gear at the obstacle course, where the focus turned to grit and agility as participants climbed, crawled, and balanced through a series of tactical challenges

On Saturday we woke up to a miserable, drizzling day. The boys started their cricket matches, only to be washed out due to rain. Meanwhile the girls, helping at the tuck shop as the campus was buzzing with touring teams and their parents.
Saturday's entertaiment included throwing the dice in the hope of rolling a “6”, putting on a winter gown, using oven gloves, trying to cut a ‘huge’ slab of chocolate with a plastic knife and fork, which proved hilarious.
Sunday brought more miserable weather, but that did not 'dampen' the children's spirits. Armed with chop sticks and ping pong balls, the children took on a Minute to Win it challenge with great enthusiasm.

After cheering on their teammates from the sidelines of the cricket field, the boarders happily spent a few cents at the caravan and tuck shop. This was followed by some well-earned free time in the cool swimming pool, which quickly became a highlight of the afternoon.
Laughter, spelling games, and music echoed through the heart of the school, filling the campus with a vibrant and joyful buzz. Usher Ville added to the fun with friendly matches along the way, including a spirited cricket game between the two dorms and indoor soccer in the Indoor Centre.

On Friday night, the weather played along perfectly; the music started and the children enjoyed a magical “night disco” under the stars, followed by a movie and tuck!
Saturday, saw the boys heading off to cricket with the girls cheering them on in full support. The evening ended on a high, with a relaxed braai at the Lapha and delicious ‘smores.
On Sunday, the children went on a beautiful, scenic walk up to the Beacon, before finishing the weekend the best way possible – in the pool.
A truly happy and memorable weekend all round.

A beautiful Sunday morning meant that the boarders had some quality ‘down time’ after a busy week. With a scrumptious brunch to fuel the tum, the “free goof” bell soon sounded. Sunblock on, there was much splashing and laughter to while away the time.
With energy expanded, the library, tennis courts and basketball hoops were soon in demand; although there was also appeal in reading a favourite book and playing UNO in the shady spots, too.

A very warm welcome to all our new boarding parents. We are so delighted to have you join our family and look forward to sharing a journey filled with happy moments, special memories, and wonderful experiences together.
This past week and closed weekend was a unique experience. The children were kept busy from sunrise to sunset.
From sports trials and movie nights, to four-square with the headmaster, tree cricket (a firm favourite), swimming, and then going to Glensheilling on Sunday. The weather was not ideal, but it certainly did not deter the children.
