Boarding : Boarding Options

We welcome boarders from Prep 3 through to the Sixth Form and there are three options to choose from:

Full Boarding:
Full boarders usually stay in the Houses at weekends although of course they can go home if that is planned by the family. Those who stay will normally take part in a planned House activity on one day and then simply relax, enjoy Truro or complete homework on the other day.

A programme of activities is organised termly in advance and includes trips to the theatre and cinemas, cycling, sailing, surfing, laser quest, ice-skating, shopping etc. 

Weekly Boarding:
This enables girls to go home every weekend whilst participating fully in school life during the week. Parents can collect their daughters from school at the end of Friday afternoon and return on Monday morning (or Sunday evening).

Occasional Boarding:
Girls are welcome to stay in the boarding house for occasional nights providing there is space available. The charge per night is £28.00. Boarding for part of a term can also sometimes be arranged, to enable parents to work away from home or perhaps respond to a family emergency.


Boarders do not remain in the Houses during half terms and are either expected to return home on the Friday evening after school or to be looked after by their Guardian.
