Boarders: Baking and Aquarium Visit

The boarding house has been filled with the delicious aroma of freshly baked muffins. Malvern House celebrated Lea’s birthday with a fun ‘muffin bake-off,’ featuring innovative flavours such as apple crumble, matcha tea, and vegan white chocolate with raspberry.

They also dedicated time to their Boarders PSHEE program. They were divided into groups and invited to create mind maps identifying the people they could turn to for support. This was followed by discussions on Pupil Voice, where the boarders generated extensive lists of ways to share their thoughts, feelings, concerns, and ideas. It was wonderful to see everyone collaborating and engaging in these important conversations.

Over the weekend, the boarding houses enjoyed a combined trip to the Newquay Aquarium, where they took an underwater journey through the Blue Reef Aquarium. Some attended an informative talk on sharks and explored various tanks and exhibits, including looking at eel grass habitats for seahorses and one particularly curious octopus.
