Two five-year Copeman's boys spoke in Chapel on Saturday about their experience at the School and specifically, in their House. For these boys, Copeman's means family. Family values and family relationships. In sharing their experiences with the congregation, they gave us moments in which to laugh and moments to cherish. The camaraderie and loyalty of the Copeman's family came through loud and clear. As part of their presentation, a grade 8 boy played piano and a new addition to the House, a boy in grade 10, got feet tapping throughout the chapel with his amazing fiddle performance. After dismissal, there was a surprise performance by a rogue musician on saxophone - along with the obvious talent, the performance added a touch of humour to the service.
