Our manypartnerships with schools and communitygroups are key to this. We have strongpartnerships with ten local primaryschools as well as secondary schools, SENschools and charitable organisations.A long-standing partnership is with TheMarsh Academy. We share facilities foracademic sessions, as well as combiningfor study and revision days, sportscoaching and the annual ‘Marshterchef’cookery competition. We also help advisewith Marsh’s Oxbridge applications – thisyear its first place at Cambridge, for astudent to read Classics, was confirmed.Our Tonbridge Community Actionprogramme sees more than 120 boysvolunteering each week, assisting withprimary school mentoring and afterschoolclubs covering languages, artand sport. Boys also help out at SENschools, supporting autistic children withswimming and football.For more than five years we have runa scheme for KCC’s UnaccompaniedAsylum-Seeking Children, who playfootball and cricket with Tonbridgeboys, sharing conversational Englishand learning about respective cultures.Working with the charity RefugEase, boyshave sorted donated goods and stagedfundraisers, while learning more about theglobal refugee crisis.The highlight of the primary schoolspartnerships is our annual Giving Day,when hundreds of visiting childrenenjoying a huge variety of differentsporting, artistic and academic activitieshere. Meanwhile our Second and ThirdYears spend the day at primary schools –this year creating gardens, running sportsfestivals and helping to create costumesand sets for school productions. Othersheaded to Haysden Country Park totackle bank erosion.Our Science for Schools programme seeslocal children visiting our laboratories overa three-week period: our students organiseand supervise hands-on, fun activities,presenting pupils with new, exciting waysof learning.
