2022 KKCL Harrow School Residential Programme

Descrierea cursului

Our Residential course starts and ends on Tuesdays.

A typical week at KKCL Harrow School Boarding House
Our Harrow School boarding houses are at the heart of the KKCL Harrow School experience. It is here where you will make new friends, sleep surrounded by the history and successes of generations of Harrovians before you, have the welcome and support of our House Master and House Parent, and settle into your new boarding school life!

During your induction, you are put into a ‘house’ so you can mix and make friends from all over the world and compete against each other to see which ‘house’ is the best. This system is how many British boarding schools are organised, and creates a dynamic and fun school environment.

The boarding houses are in close proximity to KKCL John Lyon's classrooms and all the world-class facilities that Harrow School offers. With sports activities ranging from swimming in an indoor pool to rock climbing and Harrow Fives interhouse competitions, our sports and games certainly have that something special! And don’t forget about the Fourth Form Room! This is where Harry Potter scenes were filmed, and is the location of our English Masterclass, during which you will compete in your ‘houses’ to practise your English and learn about the fascinating history of Harrow School at the same time!

Every day school starts with the House Master’s ‘Bill Call’ - Harrow terminology for roll call, then breakfast is served in the Harrow School Dining Hall where freshly prepared English-style breakfast is served with a range of hot drinks. You will then head off to either a full day of lessons at our Academic Centre or an excursion.

After dinner you will take part in fun evening activities, including British Culture Night, the KKCL Disco and BBQ party. At the end of a 2-week programme, the Graduation Ceremony is held in the Speech Room, where Winston Churchill made his famous speech. This is followed by a formal supper or BBQ party to celebrate your graduation!
