Fancy Dress Disco
What a sight to be seen as the Rookwood pupils paraded their fancy dress costumes done the high street, as they walked to the disco. What a fantastic night we all had with everyone dancing from the beginning to the end. The winners of the fancy dress was Lewis Fuller as Where's Wally? and Daisy Hayward as a Minion. Owen Natress won the best dancer award as he never stopped from the moment he arrived until the moment he left.
We are coming home.

Last day on the slopes
As the cloud comes down today has been a sad day. Lessons have come to an end and awards have been given out. Everybody achieving very highly. Although conditions have not been at their best the pupils have had great fun running on and off piste, free styling and visiting the snow park. Skis have been returned and it is time to pack. Before that lets get ready to disco.

Goodnight from Italy
As the moon rises over the mountains and the quiet descends upon our little village the Rookwood pupils have had a quiet but good night playing games. In the hotel the younger pupils played Guesstures in teams and the older pupils wandered back to the local sports hall. All mixed up and playing together the teams shared fun and laughter whilst enjoying the competition.
Prune of the day Wednesday
Today's Winner of the beautiful yellow jersey goes to Henry Robins. Henry won today's prize for tripping up off the ski lift and falling into the mud. This is one of the number of nominations has had from walking into poles and skiing into stop signs.
P of the D
Last night prune of the day was won by Ben Arnold. He won the yellow jersey for ice skating across the lounge floor performing a beautiful bollareo, after being told not to come inside with his boots on. Congratulations Ben you are today's prune of the day.
Games room time
Fun was had at the games room last night. Pool being played by all; pupils v staff, international table football and dancing on the dance machine. Highlight was Alfie winning well over a 1000 tokens on the games machines and bringing home a penny skateboard, luckily Mrs Barber has offered to bring it home in her suitcase.
Whinge Wednesday
It's a very somber morning as Whinge Wednesday arrives. Lots of tired pupils today but the sun is out, the weather is fresh and the mountains look beautiful.
