BOARDING LIFE: photo gallery

What a great day out at Masham Sheep Fair, where two of our boarding students, Freya and Maya, won the 'blind sheepdog' trials in a time of 56 seconds. We hope you enjoy our photo gallery. For more news about our activities and upcoming trips, please go to the end of our gallery

Who doesn't love a games night? Boarding students have no shortage of friends who are up for a challenge when it comes to games of chess, Monopoly, Connect 4 and more

We're enjoying some beautiful home-made autumn wreaths and arrangements, all the work of our creative boarding students, who love a weekend craft session

When rain stops play, boarding students can always enjoy an indoor game of 'chase the base' rounders, followed by tunnel ball

Who's up for a quick game of crazy golf? Great fun on the doorstep for our termly boarding students

Weekend activities

Many thanks to the parents and pupils who have completed the survey regarding weekend activities. We have rejuvenated the programme and we are going to trial a bigger 'paid for' activity at the end of every half term. This would equate to six per year and we will try to make it a seasonal activity. In addition, we will provide you with the planned activities for each half term to help families to plan their weekends. An email will be going out shortly to termly boarding families to sign up for the 'Flamingo Land' trip on 19th October. Places on this trip will be strictly limited to termly boarders in the first instance and if we have any remaining spaces, they will be offered to weekly boarders. Here is a rundown of the activities for the half term up to October half term, please note they are subject to change.
