There are various clubs at the end of last lesson, which ends at 4.00pm. On Wednesday, I choose to do community service. We go to the community centre in Abingdon and help organise exercise sessions for the elderly. When school finishes at 5.00pm, we go back to our houses to register, and also for the boarders’ teas. I normally rush back quickly to reserve my ‘All Day Breakfast’ sandwich, which is always the most popular. 6.15pm – Dinner 7.00-8.30 – Prep/Homework After prep there is an activity put on by the tutor - particularly for the younger boarders, sometimes cooking, sometimes a quiz or table tennis tournament, while in the spring and summer there are also activities outside. Squads happens at 9.15pm, which involves teams of boarders doing a quick tidy-up. The younger boys head to bed from 9.45pm, while one of the privileges of being in the Sixth Form is we can stay up until 11.00pm. Continues overleaf
