Tennis Activity – Manuel, Chady, and Antonio
CDL 2km Run – Manuel
Manuel participated in the CDL 2km Run on Friday afternoon, and posted one of the best scores in his age group!
Well done, Manuel!
A message from Coach Jamie is below:
“This message is to congratulate all those who came with us to the sports centre this afternoon to compete in the 2k run. It was wonderful to see so many talented athletes enjoying the sunshine and completing 5 laps of the track in lightning-fast times! We had very nearly 60 runners – what a great turnout, I am sure you have set us off brilliantly in the Nord Anglia Global Sports Competition.
However, the results don’t get posted until Monday, so if you didn’t manage to join us, you can still do 2k in your own time this weekend and tell us about it here. Remember, parents and house parents are also very welcome to join our team so please feel free to encourage your family to follow in your footsteps and join the CDL team, they can also upload their times using the same method.
Once again, a huge congratulations to everybody who participated. Have a great weekend – you earned it!”

Devices and Sleep!
We all have heard that, and we all do it… But this explanation is so concise and straight to the point that it made us all think about it and wonder about a change of practice.
Smartphones are great devices but they need to be taken into account carefully. Overusing it becomes a worrying practice.
And when it comes to sleeping, we are probably talking about the most essential function of our body. Neglecting it is a major mistake that can lead to serious damage if not addressed.
Sleeping is great, delicious and the key to a healthy life.
Wellbeing Wednesday – Meditation
This evening, we had our third meditation session of the term, and the boys found it very useful. We did a body scan which really allowed the boys to settle down before bed.
