A fantastic effort by the Primary Boarding Students this evening. Some amazing costumes, and a lot of sweets collected. Thank you to all in our community who helped make their evening so special.

The autumn term brings the launch of our second pillar within our annual wellbeing programme. This pillar is called ‘Respecting diversity and protecting against bullying’. 

For the next 7 weeks our students will explore their own thoughts and beliefs around inclusion, tolerance, empathetic communication and respecting and valuing difference. We will do this through the format of engaging students and houses in selected community and individual projects. We held a meeting in our Boarding House today to discuss the pillar, how they perceive the key themes that we have addressed and the specific roles they will play relating to these topics in the future.

Each student will be asked to talk about with their house parent about what they have learnt and what they found most rewarding about their projects. As with any of our wellbeing projects, we encourage creativity, time for self-awareness development and genuine reflection.  

This pillars advocate is Mr Antonio, who is there to further support houses and students in the programme. The support however continues throughout the year and students are encouraged to approach our wellbeing advocates whenever they want to reach out to discuss a problem or gain advice.  

All of the feedback will be communicated back to you through the end of term wellbeing report, where we will also take another moment to carry out the CDL wellbeing checklist. This will offer another opportunity to measure how your child is doing in key areas of wellbeing.  

Our Primary Boarders were given the fantastic opportunity to attend a Drama workshop with Mr Massim0 on Friday evening. The boys played some brilliant games, they had lots of fun and learnt lots of new theatre skills. Thank you, Mr Massimo. We hope this becomes a regular thing.

Our primary boys looking very scary – Just in time for Halloween!!

This evening, we held our weekly house meeting where myself and Mr. Rob outlined the plan for the week, the weekend, updates regarding Covid-19 and reminders regarding the rules, restrictions, hygiene and the importance of nutrition and exercise throughout the week!

Thanks for listening boys! ❤️

This evening, Sasha, Philip, Owen, and Liam participated in the Pumpkin Carving Competition!

We were so proud of their efforts. They worked incredibly well as a team and showed a lot of patience and skill to complete their project.

Well done, boys!! 🎃

Loris returned to Concha this afternoon and spent some time decorating the entrance with Halloween decorations from his home! 👻
