Key Activity and Excursion Welfare Aspects

Severnvale always adheres to a strict policy of staff to student ratios whilst in the residential building, on activities and excursions. All our support staff are trained and vetted to work with young learners.

Thorough risk assessments and guidelines are conducted for all our activities and are actioned by our activities team.

A qualified first aider is always present during activities and whilst out on excursions.

Free time on excursions is carefully arranged, with clear boundaries for where students can explore. Excursion leaders ensure meeting times and places are well established.

We offer a wide range of activities that make full use of the School’s outstanding facilities, including a 25-metre deck level pool, tennis courts, three-court sports hall, and an array of excellent grass playing pitches for a number of sports.

ENGLISH JUNIOR AMBASSADORS

Accompanying our international young learners are local school students. They are there to encourage the use of English throughout our activities and excursions. Our carefully selected ambassadors are enthusiastic about sharing their interests and insights into English customs and culture in a fun and supervised environment. A great way to make new friends, which in turn becomes an unforgettable part of the experience.
