Boarding

Student Life

We believe that boarding and school life are an integrated community that enables our boarders to extend their learning outside normal school hours. Boarders are given the opportunity to take up music lessons such as violin, guitar, drums and piano; and engage in a range of sports’ activities after school.

Our boarding house parents go the extra mile in caring for the boarders by encouraging them to foster respect and concern for one another. Each boarding house set comes with its own chill-out area where our boarding house parents create a personalized homely environment for boarders to relax and share their thoughts. Boarders get to enjoy supper prepared by their house parents, watch movies, go on trips, and celebrate birthdays, all of which add spice to their boarding life, making it a memorable and enjoyable journey.

Apart from forging life-long friendships here, boarders learn to be disciplined, responsible and independent.

Parents have a choice of either full day boarding or weekday boarding for their children.

The Boarding Schools' Association (BSA) champions boarding and promotes boarding excellence. The BSA represents over 560 independent and state boarding schools in the UK and overseas. BSA services include professional development, government relations, communications, media, publications, conferences and events.
