A close link is maintained between home and the Collegiate. We can perhaps even email you photographs, if you live abroad for example, of your child performing in a play, or on the sports field. We believe a high level of care is of paramount importance and many parents like our attention to detail to ensure the campus is ‘safe’.

On every floor, there are cosy kitchen lounges with remote control 20-channel satellite TV/video and music centre. We go to great lengths to make everything very homely. Girls and boys may bring their small pets such as a rabbit, gerbil, hamster or goldfish to board as well! (We say no to snakes, spiders and other creepy crawlies!)

Far from missing out, girls and boys living at the Collegiate usually have more fun than day students. Why? Because every weekend there are activities, visits, the ability to go out, the cinema, ice skating, trips, tourist attractions, theme parks ~ the list, and choice, is endless. There are all manner of facilities and resources available for all the different age ranges.

We have outside leisure facilities near each boarding house including table tennis, basket ball, 5-a-side football and barbecues in addition to the numerous other items of play equipment.

Perhaps they would like to go to the stables to see all the horses and ponies and maybe have a ride. We have our own fully working modern fire engine. Yes we take them out in that too ~ exciting times!

Our own fleet of mini-buses and drivers are on hand whenever we want. There is Pets Corner. There are trampolines and a climbing wall.

Many a parent jokes that they would rather stay with us as they can see how much fun their children are having and they would like to have this much fun too!
