Friday Celebration 3/11

We hope you all had an enjoyable half-term break.  This first week back has been an eventful one for the young men of Talbots.

On Tuesday, we had a fun night with some Halloween activities.  The props cupboard for house plays came in useful as 7 boys dressed up to trick-or-treat at Mr Hinkins house to surprise his children.   We also had a brain & skull cake and had a great fire in the evening.




Immediately prior to Friday celebration, more than half the house was out at the Bedford Blues fireworks & funfair where they met friends and enjoyed an evening of festivities.  Another group went out for dinner with returning house legend Simon Cheung OB!

On Thursday Marcus and Ben played wonderfully in the bass concert.  This was especially significant as it was Marcus' first concert at school.

In Teams on Saturday we have:
U14A -- Alex E. 
U15A -- Will; U15B -- Henry T. and Divine
U16C -- Simon and Alikhan; U16B -- Dan; U16A -- Andrew
1st -- George; 5th Team -- Evgenii, Leo, and FrankB!
And most importantly, in the U14E -- Theo, Roy, and Orlando.

In Badminton Justin and Adrian play for the 1st Team while Nathan is on the 2nd.

Merits this week are a mega-rollover as they include those awarded in the week prior to half-term as well.  Thus, there are some large totals:

1 - Kevin, Lennart, George
2 - Sebastian, Marcus, Oscar
3 - Dell, Edwin
4 - Will, Jason, Dan
5 - Divine, Tizian, Brady
6 - Arron, Ben, John
8-  Alex E. and Moritz Our Kings of Merits!
