Hopefully this item will not be essential but sometimes girls need a familiar face at the beginning of term. A nightlight for those a little worried at night.  A mug/cup We want you to feel at home whilst you are boarding with us and would suggest that you bring photos and posters to decorate your walls with. Fairy lights are permitted but they must be battery operated and not plug in to the mains. Don’t forget your favourite cuddly toy too! A reminder that during the big holidays, Christmas, Easter and Summer, the girls must move all their belongings out of their room as guests often use the boarding accommodation in the holidays. Girls must be mindful of this as they can only store one suitcase or trunk in the attic during the holidays, all other things must be taken home.

Money and Valuables

You will need pocket money at school as there is both a school and House tuck shop; you can also go to the village shop and order pizzas at the weekend. Any larger purchases like games kit or books can be paid for with a chit – a slip signed by Mrs Smith or Matron that can be taken to the school shop and is charged to your termly account. As a rough guide, £10 per week should be enough, especially for junior girls. All money should be left with Mrs Smith in the House bank for safe keeping. This can then be taken out after morning prayers. Amounts of money over £10 should not be carried around school or kept in your dormitory.
