BOARDING AT CORDWALLES (see our NEW Boarding Booklet)

The Boarders enjoy a very full and balanced day. A structured, uninterrupted one hour homework period is set aside each evening after which the boys enjoy an hour's free time and a snack before bed.

Over the week-ends, boys are taken on outings which include uShaka, Midlands Meander, strawberry picking, fishing, sporting and cultural events and the beach to name but a few.

Time is always found to play table tennis, table soccer, air hockey and the fully equipped Media Centre.

The Junior Boarders (Grade 1 to Grade 3) have been phased out and we no longer accommodate them. The Seniors (Grade 4 to Grade 7) are cared for by fifteen duty staff living in the Boarding Establishment. A fully qualified nursing sister, Sister Kylie Townsend, and the Master in charge of Boarding (Mr Alex Hall) are both in residence.

 

Parents, family and friends are always welcome when passing through.

In the 3rd term, as a result of the senior play, we host many of the Grade 7 day scholars. The boys then have a taste of what possibly awaits them in their next year at High School. Many Grade 7 boys who have experienced boarding for this term say that it helps them prepare mentally for boarding school in Grade 8.
