The most important element of our pastoral care is the family atmosphere that we maintain in the boarding houses. Our house staff always aim to be approachable and encourage boys to share any problems with them. Boys can also talk to staff counsellors, the School Nurses, School Doctor or any of the teaching staff.

The school also has an independent school Counsellor, a child psychotherapist, who visits the school once a week and can be seen by confidential appointment.

Our school Chaplain, Rev. Clifford Swartz, pays regular visits to each boarding house to get to know the boys and to give them the opportunity to talk about anything that is worrying them. He is happy to arrange one-to-one appointments outside his visits.
