A mysterious boarding weekend
What better way to start another boarding weekend than with an evening of murder and mystery. Oscar award-winning performances were given by our talented Staff (particularly Sister Cook), as pupils and parents had to solve the gruesome murder on Friday night.
For those unable to attend (and curious), here is a list of our cast members:
Mrs Linnet Doyle (nee Ridgeway) |
Gapper Millie |
Mr Simon Doyle |
Mr Williams |
Miss Jacqueline de Belfort |
Mrs Goodbourn |
Miss Marie Van Schuyler |
Mrs Kidson |
Miss Bowers |
Mrs Cook |
Louise Bouget |
Miss Boyd |
Mr James Ferguson |
Headmaster Mr Inglis |
Salome Otterbourne |
Miss Gluck |
Rosalie Otterbourne |
Mrs Roshier |
Mr Pennington |
Mr Brown |
Dr Ludvig Bessner |
Mr Owens |
Hercule Poiret |
Mr Morris |
Jenkins, the Steward |
Mr Hepburn |
Albeit not about the winning, more the taking part, congratulations to Tables 3 and 10 for solving the mystery first. Mrs Linnet Doyle was the unfortunate victim and Mrs Goodbourn, the scheming murderess.
For the rest of the weekend, our boarders were treated to an imaginative and unusual activity organised by Mr Attwood. Pupils were tasked with making cooking stoves out of old baked bean tins, upon which they cooked sausages, eggs and bacon.
Then on Sunday, they were treated to some art with Mrs. Syckelmoore, sport, sport and more sport, followed by a trip to Coral Reef Waterworld. How lucky?
