The FINAL BLOG?!

Music is blasting. Everyone is dancing. And signing everyone’s papyrus scrolls.

Since this is a zuppa duppa, ever-so-epic, once-in-a-lifetime special moment, we would like to make this a thank you post.

Thank you. Seriously. (I hope it’s not cheesy already.)

On everyone’s behalf, from the very bottom of our hearts, we sincerely thank every single person involved in GLA.

To parents and teachers: thank you for encouraging us to apply and experience such a whirlwind of excitement. What would we do without you?

To the R-MC staff that was involved in the running of the Academy: thank you for your unwavering support. You’re all amazing.

And finally, to all 54 members of this year’s GLA: maximas maximas maximas gratias, e corde. You all have made the three weeks superb. Y’all are awesome. Genuinely, thank you, from the bottom of our hearts. We’ll miss hearing your laughs and seeing your smiles.

Final GLA Out of Context:
“Vale!” - Everyone

Arleigh’s Final Fanta Furies:
Total:
101. HE HAS DONE IT! CONGRATS ARLEIGH!

For the final time,

Valete, omnes!

Sincerely,
Ciara and Philip, Your True Aediles signing off with maximal gratitude
