Bags and suitcases
Girls must only use small or medium lightweight bags or suitcases for travelling and storage during holidays. We do not permit large bags, suitcases or trunks as these can be very heavy and difficult to handle.  Luggage must be of a manageable size and weight to be handled by the girls.

Girls need to be able to manoeuvre their own bags around their Boarding House so please bear this in mind when selecting luggage to bring to school.

Storage of belongings during holidays
Girls may leave some possessions in School during the holidays. Only one suitcase and one bag can be stored during the holidays due to limited storage space in the Boarding Houses. Suitable bags are available to buy in the School Shop or you may use your own.

During school holidays all girls move out of their living space completely in order for rooms to be thoroughly cleaned in their absence. Belongings can be stored in the Boarding Houses but only up to two large bags or suitcases per girl plus their bedding. There is not room for more than this so you will need to contact your daughter's Guardian to look after any additional belongings.  

Laundry
A laundry bag and book will be supplied by the Boarding Houseparent. Uniform, home clothes and bedding can be sent to an outside laundry and it is essential that everything is clearly named.  We recommend that girls do not bring clothes which need individual wash care (e.g. hand wash) as the laundry cannot accommodate such requirements.  Your Houseparent will give you details of the laundry procedure. Boarding Houses have washing and drying machines for girls’ use. All clothes to be washed in-house must be machine washable and able to go in a tumble dryer.

Valuables
It is strongly advised that any personal jewellery and other valuables for use out of school hours should be engraved or permanently marked with the owner’s name.  All items of value should be kept in the secure locker provided in the Boarding House when not in use. We ask that you name expensive items such as laptops and phones.

Please do not bring valuable jewellery to School.
