What a fantastic afternoon we had for the Inter-House triathlon. One of the beauties about this competition is that it involves every boy from Years 3 to 8. It is a hotly contested event, but most importantly everyone gets an opportunity to take part. Enormous thanks to all the staff who were involved in the organisation and particular thanks go to Mr Orgill for masterminding proceedings.
A culture of inclusivity is extremely important to me. The school photograph was taken this morning and we make a point of ensuring that the entire Moulsford staff is invited to appear in the picture, even if not all of them take up this invitation! This reinforces the message that everyone’s role is important - there are plenty of schools where only the academic staff are represented.
Likewise, if you refer to the first item in this week’s “Week Ahead”, you will note that there is a list of those boys whose parents have signed them up for the 2018 South Africa tour. Out of 94 boys eligible to go (all of Years 7 and 8), 68 boys are currently registered for the trip. Rather than opting for an A team selective tour, we have been keen to structure this opportunity so that it both offers involvement and is attractive to as many boys as possible.
