Building Relationships

As a co-educational boarding community, it is important that all boarders are aware of the School’s expectations around building healthy and respectful relationships.

We expect all boarding students, regardless of gender, to be positive, friendly and respectful at all times within our community. Lifelong friendships are often fostered as a result of young people boarding together and these strong ties are a strength of our boarding community.

Whilst friendships between all boarders are strongly encouraged there is an expectation that no boarding students will conduct sexual or other physically intimate relationships whilst in residence or on the School grounds.

We are also mindful of the need for privacy in the Boarding House. Boarding students should not enter the sleeping area of other boarders without their consent and may not enter the sleeping area of boarders of the opposite sex at any time.

There is an expectation that boarders who are on leave from the Boarding House will also conduct themselves appropriately, respecting themselves and the wider community with whom they have contact.
