😁 Fun Weekend 🏀
This weekend all our Olympus kids were back to normal with 3 days full of activities, entertainment and, most importantly, lots of fun. We were also very lucky as the weather was perfect, with warm temperatures and sunshine in the sky all weekend long. Here are some photos of our boys:

Monthly House Dinner
We enjoyed another opportunity to eat together in our Olympus Boarding House. It is a great way to bond and create a sense of community. Sharing dishes family-style encourages conversation and fosters a welcoming atmosphere. It’s an opportunity to try new foods and discover different cultural cuisines which this week was Thai. The social aspect of this communal dining makes it a highlight of the month.
International Dinner: Senegal 😍
Senegalese cuisine is diverse and flavorful, with influences from West Africa, France, and the Middle East. Some popular dishes include Thiebou Djeun, a spicy rice dish made with fish and vegetables, and Mafé, a stew made with peanuts and vegetables. Eating international cuisine is positive as it allows individuals to explore new tastes, learn about different cultures and broaden their palate. It also promotes diversity and brings people together by sharing meals and experiences. Furthermore, international cuisine helps to promote local businesses and supports local economies, particularly in tourist areas. Overall, eating international cuisine is a fulfilling and enriching experience that enriches personal and community life.
Here, are some pictures from this lovely evening:
