Boarding Life at Fettes

This weekend the middle school students enjoyed a wonderful evening at the @CllgeEastHouse and @CllgeWestHouse Ball. Despite a bleak weather forecast @fettessipr headed off to the Pentlands for a 17km training run whilst some students enjoyed an afternoon watching the rugby. 🤩

Our Prep boarders enjoy busy weekends and this one was no exception. On Saturday, the keen rugby followers from Arran and Iona Houses set off for Murrayfield to watch Scotland retain the Calcutta Cup. Their weekend also included a talent show and trip to the cinema on Sunday!🌟

Students were delighted to be celebrating the end of exams.🙌 Some students went out for dinner whilst others celebrated with a pizza and movie night in-house. 🍕There were also Chinese New Year celebrations and the Log Pull Challenge but stay tuned to find out more details soon!

The Prep boarders took part in some fun activities this weekend. ⛳️🏃 Whilst Iona House headed out to test their skills during an afternoon of crazy golf, Arran House went to Xtreme Combat for outdoor Laser Tag fun and games.

On Sunday, the Prep boarders from Arran House visited the Escape Rooms where they were put into teams and challenged to find their way out. One team were victorious! 🌟 Meanwhile, the Iona House girls enjoyed some shopping and energetic roller skating at Ocean Terminal! 🛼👏

Some students this afternoon helping Mr Rowlands plan lesson progression ideas on the Low Ropes Course. Blindfolds and buckets of water.... Very difficult. Thanks for your help team! @Fettes_College

It was great to see the students dressed up for the Burns Super this weekend. It was our first formal 6th Form event in two years. Our talented runners completed a 16k run in the Pentlands and on campus students helped plan lesson progression ideas on the Low Ropes Course. 🤩

Looks like a fantastic afternoon! Well done everyone. 👏🤩

With Christmas fast approaching the students were getting into the festive spirit this weekend with trips to the @TheBotanics light show, a wonderful evening at the @KimmerghameH Christmas fayre and shoes polished for the Christmas elves to visit in College West. 🎄
