Seems calculated to kill fun at the outset. Shades of mandatory picnic :-(

plethora commented on the word lock in weekend
Indeed. The staff like to refer to it as the Big Weekend In, at least when talking to the parents, but we all know the truth.
Ostensibly the point is to help the everyone get to know each other and whatnot, but in reality it's a way of wearing out new girls so they don't have the energy to miss their parents and to prevent older girls from going to Big Day Out.
Also, I meant to hyphenate this. It should be lock-in weekend.
