Recreational Programme

Wednesday afternoons, Saturday and Sunday are non-teaching days. Activity Excursions occur each Wednesday afternoon and all-day visits to popular destinations take place on Saturday.

With the morning’s study concluded, afternoons are dedicated to the pursuit of pleasure, with fun, excitement and adventure firmly on the menu!
All sports and activities have been included in the course fee. Students can therefore select from a range of exciting activities without having to worry about additional charges or costs.

A packed programme of sports is planned and students are able to take full advantage of the school’s lakeside location with a range of watersports. The Watersports Centre at Hodge Howe on the shores of Windermere has accreditation from the British Canoeing Union and the Adventure Activities Licensing Authority, and is a recognised Royal Yachting Association teaching centre.

All activities are professionally supervised by experienced, highly qualified instructors and staff and include:

On-site Activities	Watersports	Outdoor Adventure
Arts & Crafts	Sailing	Golf Driving Range
Badminton	Canoeing	Fencing
Volleyball	Windsurfing	Archery
Tennis	Kayaking	Horse Riding
Football		Climbing Wall

 

In order to provide high quality activities, the School has formed links with several well established providers. If, as a result of changes outside the control of the School or for any other reason it is deemed necessary to modify the activity programme, the School reserves the right to cancel, restrict and/or change activities.

There’s free time before tea every afternoon to be passed on campus or in Windermere, and in the evenings students can relax and spend time with each other, cementing friendships and sharing stories. Each house has large common rooms with pool tables, table football and televisions for recreation. Additionally, we run evening entertainment sessions and encourage all to join in the fun and games: 

Discos	Barbecues
Cookery	Film Nights
Quiz Nights	House Competitions
Karaoke	Tug of War
