An important skill for boys to learn is the ability to be flexible and to adapt to different situations and circumstances as and when they arise. We have had plenty of opportunity to practise this at Moulsford this week. Unfortunately, on Tuesday, Google cancelled their visit to us at very short notice – possibly they were busy dealing with issues elsewhere? On Wednesday afternoon, following the terrorist attack in Westminster, we had to make a very swift decision to cancel the Choir and Orchestra trip to see Aladdin in the West End - this caused great disappointment to the boys who were very excited about this trip, but they were mature enough to understand that this was the only course of action that the school could have adopted. We are delighted that the theatre company have rescheduled this event for late April – please see the Week Ahead for full details.
As parents will know, we held our Trial New Timetable day on Thursday. A lot of planning went into ensuring that this day ran smoothly, and I am extremely grateful to parents for responding to our requests for information, and to the boys for embracing the new day with such an open mind. We were extremely pleased with how the day went and took copious notes throughout Thursday to ensure that we can iron out any gremlins, before full implementation in September. One of the most rewarding aspects was seeing so many boys involved in extra-curricular activities at the end of the day.
Have a lovely Easter break, and we look forward to the smell of mown grass complementing the sound of leather on willow when your boys return in April.
