SANDROYD is a boarding and day school for boys and girls aged three-13 years.

Headmaster Martin Harris said: “At Sandroyd we offer a wide and varied curriculum with specialist teaching staff to inspire and achieve academic success.

The usual school timetable is enhanced with opportunities to learn key life skills, problem-solving in real life situations and wider knowledge of the modern world. We use every inch of our extensive and beautiful grounds.

“We would like to invite prospective pupils and their families to our forthcoming open day with activities on Saturday, October 18.

“For children in years 2-8, there will be opportunities to make something in a design and technology workshop, get creative in the art room, meet the ponies, do some cookery, have fun in the drama department, use up some energy with gym games and enjoy the adventure playground.

“For pre-prep and nursery-aged children, a range of age-appropriate activities will be on offer, including messy play, art and outdoor activities. “Boys, girls and their parents are invited to join us for refreshments from 9.50am, in time for the children to start their activities at 10.00am.

“While the children are involved in these, parents may like to have a tour of the school including our boarding facilities, theatre, classrooms, new sports hall and The Walled Garden (our pre-prep), meet some of the staff and stroll around the school grounds.”
