Junior House

Junior House provides a stimulating, caring environment in which the needs of every individual girl are provided for and nurtured. Girls develop an enthusiasm and joy of learning which equips them well for later life. They grow in confidence and maturity, valuing each other and the world around them.

Girls engage in full, interesting days, in response to the challenges of a wide and varied curriculum. All girls are encouraged to take part in the extensive extra-curricular programme. They can choose from a wide range of activities such as fencing, ballet, cookery and choir.


There are regular outings to the theatre, museums and special places of educational interest. Residential visits to Holy Island, Weardale and skiing in Italy also take place, adding to and supporting a rich and exciting curriculum. Girls leave Junior House prepared for a smooth, successful transition into Senior House.
