We noted countless examples of prep school boys enjoying themselves in a rabge of activities on the playground with friends. On the previous page we see two friends mugging about outside during morning break (figure 1). Normally the closest friends are made in the same form (class) because they spend so much time together, both in the classroom and the dortmitories, but prep schools include chikldren from a wide age range. This sespecially the case in boarding schools where the children spend more time together than with their families. We see very similar close friendships forning at the day schools as well. The school program is especially helpful as a major effort is masde to create the kind of friendly, community envirment in which friendships flourish.
