WYVERN house
One year on from the launch of Wyvern House in September 2025, our new mixed boarding house within the main school building continues to flourish. The facility has been further enhanced to include a brand-new games room and laundry room, adding to its vibrant, home-from-home environment. These spaces are specifically designed to nurture independence and foster a strong sense of community, allowing boys and girls to reside in dedicated spaces with separate bedrooms, bathrooms, and shower facilities while coming together in shared communal areas like the common room, kitchen, study room, snug and games room.
Why is Farringtons considered a “second home” for pupils?
For over a century, Farringtons has been a haven for boarders, providing the time, space and dedicated care students need to flourish. Our boutique-style boarding, coupled with unwavering pastoral support and experienced house staff, ensures our students excel academically and grow into well-rounded individuals. We understand the importance of a nurturing environment, a “second home” where happiness and well-being are paramount. Parents can be confident their children are receiving a holistic education, shaping both their minds and characters.
How does boarding help pupils build essential life skills?
Living in our boarding house empowers students to develop essential life skills. Independence, confidence and compassion are nurtured within a diverse “family” of peers from various ages, nationalities and backgrounds. Meaningful connections are forged, creating a supportive network that extends beyond the classroom. Whether families are near or far, our location just outside London offers a unique blend of serene campus life and easy access to the vibrant capital.
