Welcome to the Third Year
The 66 new first years enjoyed their first
week at Abingdon finding their way around
the campus, trying out lots of Other Half
activities, and getting to know their new
classmates and teachers. This is just a taste
of what they had to say:
First Years’ First Week
I have got on really well and I do
not want to go home. School
has made my brain work and
has given me lots of friends.
I’ve had one the best weeks of
my life.
I’ve made lots of friends so I
had a lot of fun playing pool
and the lunch was delicious.
Most of us got lost once or
twice though!
My week has been AMAZING!
I have really enjoyed it and I
can’t wait to get back to school
on Monday!
This week has been tiring, fun,
but most of all, amazing! I am
so proud and excited to be
going to this fantastic,
huge school!
Boarders also enjoyed making new friends
and settling into their new surroundings.
Third year boys rounded off their first week with a bbq followed by team building games
and activities. The boys thoroughly enjoyed command tasks run by the CCF, rock
climbing, shooting, football and making parachutes that would safely land an egg!
