Our experience of Bishops this far has been an exciting and nerve wracking experience. The vibe in the dorm feels as if we have known each other for ages. The house has been very welcoming and also helped us set new standards for ourselves. As we join the White House family expectations are high and we will undoubtedly do our best to reach those expectations and even exceed them. For the boys that are new at the whole boarding experience it was a little weird, but as time goes by we are getting better at it. The rumours that we heard of boarding house food being bad we really haven’t experienced that this far and as a dorm we rather enjoy the food. For a lot of us Ms Dimbleby has been a great help for us and the other younger boys and she really adds a motherly touch to the house especially for those who miss their moms. The matrics have taken us on as little brothers and advised us on how we are expected to behave, but also explained all the ins and outs of boarding school to help us settle in as smoothly as possible.
The major highlight for all the boys in our dorm definitely had to be sports day; the atmosphere around the house and energy was amazing. The amount of spirit that the house has was a first for all of us we had never actually experienced anything like it. The never say die spirit that white house has will stick with us. Hopefully when we are in matric we can lead the house to victory.
For all the stressed and worried parents we are all cool and doing well, but most importantly we are enjoying white house and as the grade eight dorm we feel like we have made the right decision to join White House. We are exhausted, the food is grand, the matrics legends and we love it!
