Boarders welfare and well-being is looked after by an experienced team of highly trained, dedicated staff who ensure the day to day running of the house is as smooth as possible and that it feels like ‘home from home’ for the children.

House parents look after every day needs such as daily medication routines, laundry, looking after sick boarders, general care of the house and are always available to listen to, support and encourage any boarders who may need some help. Routines in boarding help develop structure and together with clear boundaries ensures that all boarders are able to thrive in a happy, safe and secure environment where they make lifelong friends and wonderful memories. House tutors support boarders during prep time in the evening as well as in the house. Each child belongs to a boarding prefect group in the house and prefects act as role models and mentors from their own experiences.
