We emphasise the importance of adopting a healthy lifestyle, and we encourage and support all children to take plenty of exercise and to develop good eating habits.

We aim to ensure that all our young people enjoy a healthy, balanced diet: all meals at school and in the houses are prepared by our team of cooks using fresh local ingredients where possible. Healthy snacks are available in the houses and children are also supported to learn how to prepare themselves tasty and nutritious meals.

Mindful of the fact that everything is so much easier after a good night’s sleep, we also support children to develop healthy sleeping habits including regular age-appropriate bedtimes and good sleep hygiene techniques.

We take the wellbeing of all the children at the school extremely seriously and we seek to promote a positive culture that upholds our values of kindness and empathy. We celebrate diversity and we emphasise the importance of showing respect for others.

We want all children to flourish so we adopt a zero-tolerance approach to bullying. Our Anti-Bullying Policy reinforces the importance of a supportive culture and countering bullying is a regular workshop topic run by senior staff.
