The Xbox is a real hit with the girls dancing the time away after evening school. 
The piano has been an excellent addition to the house - Amanda entertained the house with her amazing singing while Harriet McGilary accompanied her on the piano.   Next challenge is to video and blog it.

Welcome to Aberdeen House

A warm welcome to Aberdeen House Blog at the start of the Michaelmas term.
The house is buzzing with energy and enthusiasm as the girls get their new timetables and prepare for the coming year.   They have enjoyed meeting up with old friends and having the chance to make new ones.
Some of the new girls have been a little homesick as they make the transition into boarding, but the old hands have been there to help with cuddles and sound advice.   We have had hot chocolate and marsh mallows before bedtime and the Fith Reps have been around to help at bedtime, which has worked wonders.   I am very proud of the caring nature that we have in the House and know that with time the new girls will feel very much a part of the Aberdeen and its ethos.

This weekend the girls have been busy with Hockey trials and the whole school 'Black and White' disco.
Here are just a few pictures to give you a feel of what a busy life they have at Ardingly College.

Poor Ellie - first injury of the year, but will be fine just bruising
