Extra-Curricular Activities
Outside study time, pupils have a huge choice of extra-curricular activities, clubs and societies within which to find like minds and fresh challenges. Many are founded and run by the pupils themselves. Whether broadening or intensifying their interests, pupils take part in a busy and stimulating range of activities that enrich their studies and their school life throughout the year.
Charities Committee, Design & Technology, IDEAS Society (Innovation, Design, Engineering and Applied Sciences), Prospect Society (Future and enterprise), Young Enterprise, Choirs, Orchestras, Bands, as well as Beat Society, Bell Ringing, Opera Society, Art, Book Binding, Design & Technology, Kenneth Clark Society (Art History), and much more…
Boarding Life
Like a family home, each House feels intimate and personal, but is also professional. It is led by a Housemaster who lives in the boarding house alongside the pupils and will be central to their time at the school. In addition to their role in the House, each Housemaster is a member of the teaching staff, with experience in both the academic and extra-curricular life of the school. They are passionate about their subjects and interests, and used to taking a balanced view when some aspects of growing up may seem a challenge.
