Island Life August/September 2018

Education
Ryde School’s still a hive of activity
The children’s Summer School
and new Island Pony Project
(a riding and activities weekly
summer course) at Ryde School
are proving extremely popular,
both with local and international
children, with activities such as
water-sports, cooking, games
and day trips among some of the
summertime options available.
Children, both local and from
overseas, are also staying at the
School’s boarding houses for
the duration of the Summer
School, which means they
get to enjoy even more
fun in the evenings
with barbecues, beach
excursions and games.
Meanwhile, on-site,
teams are hard at
work improving and
adding to the School’s
facilities, aiming to
create three newly-fitted
science labs, two in the
Senior School and one in
the Junior School, a newly
refurbished and re-designed
wellness centre and generally
preparing the School for the new
academic year in September.
If you are interested in hearing
about and seeing what Ryde
School has to offer, the next
Open Morning will take place
on Saturday 6 October. Visitors
can take part in a series of
experiments, activities and
demonstrations, there will
be information available on
scholarships and bursaries, and
a complimentary family lunch
will be served in the dining hall.
