Hi everyone

How exciting that we are at Level 1! It has meant there have been lots of changes around the hostel, giving the girls more flexibility again. The kitchen has opened up further, allowing even more options for breakfast. The smoothie station is back, along with self service hot breakfast, continental options and of course the Poke Bowls for lunch!

We would like to say a massive thank you to our amazing kitchen staff, who have been doing an incredible job over the past few weeks!

The Escape Room was last weekends activity, held at the Savoy and the old Dunedin Prison. The juniors had 70 minutes to unlock their rooms, using a variety of hidden clues and figuring out challenging codes. It was a great morning out and they all did very well to 'escape' so quickly!

On Sunday some of the girls went down to the Activities Room to try out new recipes. They created an edible cookie dough, packed with sprinkles and chocolate chips. Another creation was Russian fudge, with the addition of Freddo Frogs and more chocolate! It is nice to have this room open again for the girls to complete different activities and bake delicious treats!
