www.abingdon.org.uk 3 Abingdon News 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! “ “ “ “ “
