Summer Fields, Oxford

Year 7 have really enjoyed their Waterloo trip so far and have been very engaged in learning about life in the battlefields and the impact of the war on the local area.

The Staff vs Parents Cricket Match took place on Sunday and was a great success, filled with fun and laughter. It was wonderful to see so many families come together and enjoy an afternoon of excellent cricket, sunshine and great company.

The staff demonstrated that the many hours they spend coaching have clearly paid off, enabling them to secure a convincing victory on the day. Fortunately, the result did little to dampen spirits, as the real winner was the sense of community enjoyed by everyone involved. Thank you to all who took part and those who also came along to support.

Our leavers enjoyed a fabulous array of activities last week from leadership challenges, making Sushi and learning Magic tricks, to the ‘River of Death’ (rafting in the outdoor pool), Clay-Pigeon shooting and learning the art of the Samurai. More adventures follow this week…

Thanks for providing the brilliant masterclasses:

The boys also dusted off their singing skills as they practiced ‘un homme debout’ by
