Boarding Activities
Boarding life is enriched with a wide range of activities designed to foster a sense of community, encourage
personal growth, and create memorable experiences. From structured events that build discipline and
leadership to relaxed gatherings that promote friendship and fun, each activity plays a role in shaping a vibrant
and supportive boarding environment. The following activities highlight some of the key engagements that
form the heartbeat of life in the houses.
House Sports
Afternoon sports where each house plays and trains
within its own group, giving students time to
practise skills, stay active, and enjoy friendly
in-house games. Junior School boys use this time
for their Free Games period.
Formal Dinners
Structured evening meals that bring students
together with external guests including Old Boys
and other distinguished visitors to promote
etiquette, meaningful conversation, and a strong
sense of community.
Sessions/Talks
Informative discussions led by guest speakers or
staff, designed to inspire students and broaden their
knowledge on various topics.
Societies’ Visit to Boarding Houses (Weekends)

societies visit boarding houses to run fun activities,

Book Club

selected books, share opinions, and enjoy
thoughtful literary discussion.
Intra Boarding Activities

matches and poetry sharing that encourage
creativity and intellectual engagement.
Movie Nights

together to enjoy films and unwind.
Outdoor Visits and Trips
Recreational outings to Oasis and other outdoor
locations that offer students adventure, fresh air,
and team-building experiences.

celebrated in the boarding houses. Parents may
