A big thank you to Mr. Ronan from CDB for hosting an entertaining  Kahoot challenge for our boarders! The evening’s theme was World Children’s Day, with questions from around the globe.

The first game saw a victory for the CDB boys, while the Terray girls came out on top in the second round. The friendly competition brought plenty of excitement and laughter, and we truly enjoyed sharing this special moment together as a community.

Here’s to more fun and engaging activities like this in a near future!

This week kicked off on a high note as we replaced an hour of phone time with engaging group activities. Each day, the girls either decide on an activity or take suggestions from us, creating a wonderful sense of collaboration and fun. On Monday, we played a house favourite, Werewolf, and baked a delicious pear cake that everyone enjoyed. On Tuesday, we continued working on our creative book cover designs. These group sessions aim to foster a sense of togetherness, connection, and creativity among the girls, making their time in boarding even more enriching and memorable.

This weekend was packed with fun, laughter, and meaningful activities—it truly flew by! From exciting outings to creative projects and moments of relaxation, everyone made the most of their time together.

A big thank you to our Boarding Activity Coordinator for organising a fantastic day out for all the boarders! The outing included a special treat to watch Wild Robot at the cinema ! A captivating movie that kept all boarders engaged, after the movie, the students enjoyed a meal followed by some free time in the shops.

A new initiative has been organised by our Senior House Parent, Mr. Gordon, who is in charge of the Boarding Representative Committee. The committee has decided to introduce a challenge for all boarding houses every two weeks to promote team-building skills.

I am pleased to confirm that the Terray girls thoroughly enjoyed participating in this week’s Word Search Challenge.

We had a wonderful weekend with mild weather and beautiful autumn leaves creating a colourful, scenic backdrop that was a pleasure to admire. The girls chose a variety of activities, including baking, horse riding, hip-hop dancing, November fitness challenge and on Sunday, Terray attended an air-loop trampoline day trip. Of course, no weekend would be complete without our evening gathering to watch a movie together. Overall, it was a pleasant and restful weekend.

This special international  dinner, we treated ourselves to a wonderful Japanese feast, a favourite for food lovers from all over the world. The experience was nothing short of delicious.

We had a wonderful dinner tonight inspired by the flavours of North Africa “Morocco”. The spices and aromas were exceptional, and we enjoyed a delicious lamb couscous  with a warm traditional salad served with small pitta bread. To top it off, we were served sweet mint tea and biscuits, making it an absolute treat!

At Terray boarding house, we are passionate about encouraging our students to engage with and embrace reading in all its forms! We’ve introduced a daily habit where everyone reads for 20 minutes together and then shares a brief summary of their book. This not only fosters a love for reading but also sparks interest in different genres and titles across the group.

We’ve also brainstormed a few exciting activities to make reading even more interactive:

• Design a book cover: Students can re-imagine the cover of a book they’re reading or create one for a book they would like to write.
• Book swap: We’ll organise a fun book exchange where everyone can share their favourite reads.
• Library visits: Setting aside a specific day to visit the school library to explore new books and genres.
• Create your own comic book: Using templates, students can illustrate and write their own comic stories, blending creativity and reading.
• Write and perform a short play: Students will work together to write a short play and perform it, using props and costumes from around the house.

The possibilities are endless, but our goal remains the same—to instil a love for reading as a lifelong hobby. I’m excited to share a few pictures that capture these wonderful moments in the house!
