BEDTIMES

To assist with the settling of children in the evening we ensure each year group have adequate time to wind down from a busy and exciting evening in their dorms. 8:15 pm Form 3 whispers / reading 8:30 pm Form 4 whispers / reading 8:45 pm Form 5 whispers / reading 9:00 pm Form 6 whispers / reading LIGHTS OUT

After 15 minutes of whispers and reading in dorms, it is lights out, and we expect children to begin falling asleep.

We understand some children are naturally ‘night owls’ and reading after lights out is at the discretion of the boarding staff on duty.

All dorms are actively supervised until 9:40 pm, when all children have been silent for a considerable amount of time.
