Jon McDowall —

The past week has been good getting involved in the boarding house and starting to get to know the staff and students.

It’s evident there is a very strong sense of community within the Boarding School and the importance the boys place on this. Over the week I have spoken to a number of boys, which has given me insight into what works well and some potential areas for consideration. Over the next few weeks we will be looking at ways to strengthen some practices in the boarding house and your perspective as parents is welcomed. This coming week I will be sending out a short survey regarding the future direction of the boarding school and it would be great if you could take the time to complete this.

At the parent meeting on the first Sunday back we will share with you our shared vision going forward.


Have a great weekend.

Jon McDowall
