The Spring term saw the return of our annual Festival week and this year it was the ‘Festival of Curiosity’. It was an amazing week of festival events and activities with incredible cakes, baffling escape rooms, giant puzzles, mind-boggling questions, fiendishly complicated crime scene investigations, fantastic talks from visitors, to name but a few, and a general air around the School of endeavour and, of course, curiosity.
The boarding community have had a lot of fun this term including trips to Splashdown in Poole, Airhop and Ninja Warrior in Bristol. The traditional Easter Feast was held where the children showed off amazing bonnets as well as the exciting Burn’s Night Supper.
