We are delighted to announce that the first step in our masterplan for the future of the school estate has been completed with the relocation of St Cuthbert’s day house to the building that, in time, will become the school’s new pastoral hub.
St Cuthbert’s new setting is already making a huge difference to the boys who appreciate the extra space and facilities that it offers, from comfy common rooms (complete with Xbox, pool table, table tennis, table football and more) to study spaces and smaller breakout areas for conversation and relaxation. For boys in the Sixth Form, there is a separate and sizeable common room and kitchen. The spacious day house also allows the boys to come together as a community, both informally and for house assemblies and house events, such as quizzes and peer mentoring sessions. As one Sixth Former explained, “You appreciate the house more as you are all in one place more of the time. It is great for strengthening the bonds between boys from all year groups, giving us an even stronger sense of house camaraderie.”
