Pupils of a Prep-School age have enquiring minds and our varied After-School Activities programme aims to tap into this by offering new and exciting opportunities for pupils in Year 1 and above.

By providing a time to do something a little bit different, to socialise with friends and to develop new hobbies, a young mind can grow and a life of discovery can begin. Exploration of new ideas and pastimes are crucial in the development of a well-rounded pupil, suitably prepared for senior school.

“Durston House’s academic success speaks for itself but our experience has been that of their investment in the whole child. The school offers a variety of opportunities to enhance their resilience and growth and leadership skills.”
