Evenings and weekends

After school, and into the evenings, our boarders are kept busy with a variety of activities.

A typical weekday evening will begin with a tutor group meeting which is led by one of our experienced house parents. This provides the boarders with an opportunity to talk about any ideas or suggestions they may have for the boarding community.

After the tutor group meeting the boarders will enjoy a delicious homecooked evening meal in our Dining Hall.

We offer supervised prep (homework) sessions in our purpose-built classrooms which are fitted with IT equipment, to enable the boarding pupils to access their schoolwork and communicate with teachers.

Our very popular ‘Tuck Shop’ is open 4 nights per week and stocks lots of yummy snacks.

Evening activities include:

Football
Basketball
Bingo
Baking
Board games
Quizzes
Movie nights
And much more….
