There is always a sense of excitement and somewhat wonder about coming back into the boarding house.\u00a0 This sense of excitement was even more so after the extended break due to the COVID-19, so coming back into the boarding house after the quarantine break was very special as it also marked the first-time students would step foot inside of the new RAI Grant Centre which has been in construction for over 2 years.\u00a0 Included in the new development is a new terrace on the southern side of Hodges and Barry.\u00a0 On Sunday evening, the otherwise quite backyard of Mr Fitch and Mr Morris quickly became louder and louder as boys from the four boarding houses were welcomed onto the new Boarders Terrace for dinner.\u00a0 We were treated to pizzas where the boys told stories about their own isolation followed by a tour of the new centre led by Dr Peterson.\u00a0 To say the new facilities that the boys will have access is breath taking would be an understatement.\u00a0 The classrooms, the basketball courts, the swimming pool and gymnastics area, and especially the new strength and conditioning area are world class.\u00a0 As you can see in the pictures.\u00a0 It was an honour to be asked to score the very first basket (slam dunk) on the new courts in front of the year 12 boarders, and I know that boys will be enjoying this facility for years to come.<\/p>\n
