Wellbeing
Professional support
We have two school psychologists who provide regular support to our boarders. Our Middle School Psychologist visits the Middle School Residence weekly to lead discussions alongside our Middle School House Parent.
Our Lead Psychologist works across the Middle and Senior School boarding houses. They work closely with our Head of Boarding and Heads of Residences to ensure that all boarders are supported in both boarding and in school. The Lead Psychologist consults regularly with families and relevant staff where needed and works with staff to ensure they can provide strong, adaptable pastoral care and mental health support.
Positive masculinity
All Year 10 and 11 boarders undertake the Tomorrow Man programme. This 10-workshop series is delivered over two years and focuses on developing healthy masculinity and building strong relationships, with an emphasis on respect and consent.
Life skills
The renowned Tomorrow Man programme transforms in Year 12 as boarders learn the skills necessary for life beyond school and the boarding house. Year 12 boarders learn financial literacy skills, how to write a resume, plan their perfect gap year, and what to do when you don’t know what to do in a series of online micro-courses.
Our senior boarders gain workshop skills in metal and woodwork, test their culinary abilities in a cooking course, learn to do their own laundry (we have washing machines onsite) and, in Year 12, undertake a barista course.
