Activities Week
Activities Week was a bustling and enjoyable mostly Oxford-based affair this year, with the boys engaging in a number of wonderful activities to get them out of the classroom and trying something new.
Those activities included: a visit from Aesop’s Touring Theatre Company; art and orienteering inspired by Treasure Island; pizza making; drumming and dance; rehearsing, performing and filming the Year 3-4 play specially written by Mrs Williams; a French cheese (and bread and snails!) workshop; volleyball and petanque tournaments; French card games; a patisserie workshop; a Thames Path walk; a visit to Go Ape; older boys teaching the younger ones; and a visit to the New College archives and ascent of the Tower. It was a wonderful way to broaden the boys’ horizons and to enjoy a bit of ‘down time’ after the Trinity assessments.
