The end of the holidays

I write this on the train from Dorset to London on my way to see the first day of the Lords test. It strikes me that this is the last week of the holidays as I will be at my desk from Monday.

The summer holidays are always fantastic and we have had a wonderful time but I always think that when we get to this stage I am ready to get back to work.

I love the Michaelmas term. September is always lovely, the grounds look spectacular in Autumn and December is full of so many great events.

This term we have a particularly exciting start as the programme about the school will be broadcast on BBC 2 at 9 o'clock on Tuesday 14th September. The title is "Britain's Youngest Boarders". Make sure you all watch it!!
