School House

 

Term has started at a fast pace with a week almost gone already. Everyone is settling to the routine although we are all dependent on the bell ringer in the morning!

Again SH is supporting school sport teams and most of the House is involved in rugby, badminton, squash and shooting teams. Special mention to George ET for scoring a try in his debut game.  

Congratulations to Joe on his appointment as Captain of Basketball and Matt H (Y11) as Captain of Squash.

SH entertained Y10 on Saturday evening with croquet, volleyball and a film while the sixth form went to the Freshers BBQ. The whole boarding community went to Chessington amusement park on Sunday and enjoyed themselves - see photos below. 

 

Exeat Weekend starts after school on Friday 24th September. Please remember to advise Mr Willis gjw@sevenoaksschool.org and Mrs Hebbert  ash@sevenoaksschool.org  of travel arrangements plus additional taxi requirements. Boys should return by 21.00 on 26th September.

And Finally...

On a practical note please be aware that during the holidays and exeats the boarding house is closed and boys should not expect to automatically gain access to the premises. 'Access in holidays' includes impromptu visits and surprisingly early returns.  Obviously there be may be occasion where access is required and agreement must be gained in advance.
