Over the course of the Summer Term, boarders at Leweston have enjoyed a wide range of activities and trips, enhancing friendships, learning and long-lasting memories! 

The term kicked off with a heartfelt greeting from our boarding team, reuniting with familiar faces and acquainting themselves with our new international short-stay students.

Our boarders embarked on thrilling adventures such as Splashdown, Go Ape, Xtreme Falconry, and caving, showcasing their bravery and resilience.

They participated in a range of activities including Tennis, Letter Writing Club, Bowling, and the Boarding Olympics, masterminded by Eduardo (Year 8). In addition, they enjoyed Inflatables in the Leweston pool, leisurely dog walks, and an electrifying evening cheering on Leweston's Rock Band 'The Lites' in concert.

During a fishing expedition, our boarders showcased their skills with impressive catches and took some time to unwind during Wellness Weekends, creating beautiful Mindfulness Murals in the boarding common rooms.

Thank you to our boarding team and boarders for a memorable term! The responses for this year's leavers book highlight just how much boarding means to our students.
