We believe that a child’s experience is significantly enhanced when they board. We have full, weekly and part-time boarders and children can start boarding in Year 3. We currently have around 100 boarders.
Boarding options
For us, boarding is centred on the idea of ‘family’. We know that in order for children to be successful, they need to feel happy and relaxed. We create a safe and supportive environment for our children, in order for them to develop into caring, self-reliant, confident individuals. We expect our boarders to support one another, to be kind, considerate and respectful and we work with our children to build a strong community spirit.

Boarding has given my children the chance to grow in independence and to learn to get on with different people - all in a familiar, fun and safe environment.
