Training
efore the Whole School Dinner, new
students attended a dining etiquette
session to help them feel confident at

“twelve o’clock” method for soup, learning to
scoop away from themselves and sip without
blowing. Next, they explored the two main Poise and
cutlery styles: the American style, which involves
switching the fork to the right hand after cutting, Presence
and the European style, where both fork and knife
remain in constant use.
The training also introduced the names and
uses of dining tools, ensuring students were well-
prepared for the evening.
