Smiles and shrieks of excitement filled the Pre-Prep building as the classrooms soon filled with enthusiastic pupils ready to embark on the first day of term.  Any apprehension that they may have felt rapidly dissipated as the boys found friendship, explored new classrooms, and began a new academic year of learning.  There were lots of ‘firsts’:  first day of school, first time meeting the new Head of Pre-Prep (Debbie Ross) and Year 1 teacher (Hannah James), first visit to the new Year 2 classroom (2R), first assembly in the new Pre-Prep hall, and the first Pre-Prep lunch in the Octagon.  We are all looking forward to many more weeks of fun!
