The boarding experience offers support in developing a child’s sense of ownership of their own learning and life experience. Of course there must be scaffolding: care, kindness, trust, challenge, support and understanding. Staff are always around to share the joys and occasional struggles of life – or just for a chat at the end of the day!
“We continue to feel very blessed to be part of the King’s community and cannot thank you enough for the support and encouragement you have shown us all during these uncertain times. Thank you so much. We all appreciate you and the school very much.”
Boarding Parent
Home away from home
We seek to create a ‘home away from home’ environment in which boys and girls are safe, happy and able to flourish in both work and play. There is help on hand with prep sessions, as well as with music practice, and a wide range of activities is on offer to fill free time. The extensive School grounds and facilities can be enjoyed when the school quietens at the end of the working day; the summer months are punctuated by barbeques and evening swims.
We offer weekly (Monday to Thursday nights), flexi and occasional boarding for girls and boys. Year 4 and 5 Boy Choristers are all weekly boarders; Year 6 to 8 Boy Choristers are full boarders (with exeat weekends).
