A fond farewell

We said goodbye to some lovely students today.

We also welcomed some new lovely students too.

Don’t worry – this is just the start of your journey

It’s very important to stay in touch with all the new friends you’ve made. More Than English students often visit their new friends in the months (and years) after summer school.

Stay in touch. Keep in contact. Visit your new friends soon!

The rain

We’d like to apologise for all the sunshine over the last 3 weeks. It has been sunny every day. We know it wasn’t what you were expecting. Today, however, we are pleased to report a return to traditional British summer weather. Rain. Black clouds. Umbrellas.

There was so much rain the morning that the river level rose and we had to reschedule canoeing. It was also too wet to walk to Ludlow Castle so we’ve rescheduled that too.

Time to recover

All the students have been working hard all week. This afternoon we relaxed a little bit:

Golf with professional golf coach Dan

Football with professional coach Kieron

Swimming pool with the lifeguards

Horse Riding

Because the rain “eased off” (almost stopped) in the afternoon the horse riders were able to go on their trek into the countryside.

The black panther

When you leave the campus, you’ll walk down a long drive. It takes about 12 minutes. Immediately opposite on the other side of the road is the mighty Mortimer Forest.

Warning: English joke

This evening we went to hunt the black panther that had just escaped from the local safari park.

The Black Panther Video

House Parent Seth captured the Night of the Black Panther on a homemade video.
