Hello everyone,
It’s me, Boardington Bear, back with another weekly review from our ever busy boarding house. It has been a week full of creativity, colour, learning and a few very tasty moments too.
Rehearsals have continued at full pace for the school musical Frozen, and oh my paws, everyone is working incredibly hard. Each day brings more polish, more confidence and more magic. Lines are being perfected, songs are growing stronger and the stage is coming alive piece by piece. I have been popping in to rehearsals whenever I can, sitting proudly at the side and watching the dedication unfold. It has been amazing to see how much effort everyone is putting in and how it all starts to come together.
Over in the Prep Department it was Numbers Day, and it was wonderful to see so much excitement around maths. There were numbers everywhere, problem solving activities and lots of creative ways to make maths fun. I wandered past feeling very impressed by the enthusiasm and concentration on display.
We also celebrated Funky Sock Friday, which is always one of my favourite days. The boarding house was filled with bright colours, stripes, spots and some truly bold sock choices. I made sure to admire as many pairs as possible, and I must say my favourite socks of all were covered in rainbows. A bear appreciates good sock confidence, especially when it comes in every colour.
Another highlight of the week was World Nutella Day, which is always a favourite around here. There were smiles, happy faces and plenty of excitement whenever Nutella was mentioned. I may have hovered nearby just in case a spoon was left unattended. Quality control is important.
Behind the scenes, the electrician visited to carry out PAT testing on all the electrical items in the boarding house. While it was all very official and important, I must admit that I learnt a lot watching the process. I discovered why checking plugs, leads and appliances matters so much and how it helps keep everyone safe. I feel much wiser now. A safety aware bear is a happy bear.
So with rehearsals continuing, socks getting funkier, Nutella being celebrated, numbers being enjoyed and safety checks completed, it has been another full and productive week in boarding.
Until the next adventure,
Paws on the ground, news all around
