Designed to complement students’ class work, the activities, sports, and cultural enrichment program ensures that whenever students are not in the classroom they have
a range of opportunities available.
From museum tours to a choral concert or a tennis tournament, students have multiple options every day to satisfy their creative, intellectual, and athletic ambitions. Our Activities Directors transform Cambridge and Oxford into classrooms, in which students can engage with the history and tradition around
them in any number of ways.
From Cambridge’s Shakespeare Festival to Evensong at Christ Church Cathedral in Oxford, students have almost unlimited opportunities to be out and about. In addition, both cities offer a host of wonderful galleries, museums, parks, street markets, libraries, and scientific institutes for students to explore; and, of course, there are the many historical sites within each city that record their pivotal positions in British history from the earliest times to the present day.
Students on both Preps enjoy several program-wide field trips. On The Cambridge Prep Experience students spend a day in London, visiting sites relevant to their major subject with their teacher. They also visit Canterbury Cathedral, one of the finest examples of English Gothic architecture. Students on The Oxford Prep Experience also spend a day in London as well as a day at Warwick Castle, a well-preserved medieval castle built by William the Conqueror in 1068, situated on the historic River Avon.
