Prep Day

It’s important to us that our day pupils are treated no differently to their boarding classmates and, apart from sleeping at home, their day-to-day schedule is very similar.

Day pupils are welcome to enjoy breakfast and supper at school at no extra cost and take part in a huge range of sports and extra-curricular activities with their peers.

Looking back on your childhood, what memories stand out to you? Hopefully days of exploring nature, playing with friends and learning new skills…

Our beautiful 65 acres of grass and woodland, nestled in the foothills of the South Downs allows children to be children, giving space to learn, discover and play.

There’s also plenty of wildlife to spot – including a family of deer, badgers, pheasants and plenty of birds. With over 1000 trees to climb, there’s plenty of scope for a treehouse or den to house adventure seekers.

All activities are led by expert coaches whose passion and energy motivates the children immensely.

Extra-curricular activities are coached and led by our multi-talented staff, including our ex-National Trust ranger and his trusty friend Stan the Labrador.

There are also opportunities for the children to enjoy camping trips to France and survival nights ‘in the wild’!
