Weekends

Saturday is when all our students enjoy an exciting full-day excursion to London, Oxford or Harry Potter Studios.

Sundays will either involve students getting ready to return home or spending a relaxing day at Westonbirt. This could involve a traditional English garden party including croquet on the lawn or a shopping trip to the nearby pretty town of Tetbury.

The day starts with a late breakfast and staff will organise the students into activities depending on the level of energy and the wishes of the students.
