TOURING ABROAD<br />
SCHOLARSHIP PROGRAMME<br />
Senior students in the school take part in a major<br />
overseas tour every three years. This gives our<br />
senior sports players the chance to test their<br />
sporting ability in a different environment whilst<br />
sampling new cultural experiences.<br />
Tours are also a great vehicle for developing<br />
independence in our young players and learning<br />
how to live with others in an intense sporting<br />
environment. Recent tours have visited North<br />
America and Canada, Sri Lanka, South America<br />
and Australia with a tour to South Africa being<br />
planned for July 2018.<br />
Sport Scholarships are available to students on<br />
entry to Year 7 and to the Sixth Form. Scholarships<br />
are awarded on merit and represent a real<br />
accolade to successful candidates who must not<br />
only demonstrate a high level of ability but also<br />
future potential. Scholarships are awarded on the<br />
understanding that a pupil will fully involve<br />
themselves in the sporting life of the school.<br />
