This week culminated with the Senior School musical production of “Fiddler on the Roof” and Barnacle House was well represented: Kin Jivavatanasaki played one of the villagers and commented prior to the production run about how he was eagerly anticipating singing a song in Russian (Russian Tenor #6). Ethan Lin and Jason Zhang played masterfully as they provided the backbone to the pit orchestra. Last but not least, Steven Song, was one of the leads in the dual-casted musical, he played Tevye and was wonderful. Unfortunately, there was no photography allowed during the production.
Saturday Activity – Squash
A small group of students decided to get some exercise during the blustery, cold Saturday afternoon by joining the squash Saturday activity. Although many of the students had little experience with playing games, they were keen to learn and had fun playing.

Justin Tam showed his prowess on the court with some good drives and boast shots.

It was great to see Jason So out there learning more about the different types of shots in the game.

Just under two hours later, everyone was feeling great and more energized!
Sunday – Getting Ready to Reset
Sunday started with cool weather and clouds but it did not stop the rowers from getting up early and onto the water in their boats for the regatta.
Others had a quiet start and signed out for walks with friends or to the local mall. The common space was busy for lunch with fried chicken and games, while the grade 8’s spent some time in the afternoon practicing origami.

Winslow and the Barnacle/Winslow community welcomed a new addition to the house this week.

And this week marks the final week of Term four so everyone is busy working to finish the term on a strong note. Even with so much to do, there were a few minutes for boarders to attend an office meeting with Betty.

Two weeks until Spring Break and the excitement is building!!
