What's On in Boarding? Lent Term 2026 New Hall School

Page 1


Welcome to Trinity Term

It is a pleasure to welcome you to the Trinity Term and to share this booklet, which outlines our exciting programme of weekend boarding activities.

This term’s programme offers a wide range of experiences, from adventurous outings such as treetop challenges, go-karting, paintballing, and theme park visits, to more relaxed and creative activities including outdoor cinema nights, garden games, and wellbeing sessions.

Students will also enjoy a variety of cultural and social events, from London theatre visits, Farmers’ market and seaside trips to community celebrations and house events.

Alongside these featured trips and activities, boarders also benefit from a full and enriching weekend programme. This includes boarders’ sports, academic support, gym sessions, swimming, music practice, dance sessions, Sunday Mass, and much more, ensuring a balanced and engaging experience for all.

In addition to a varied programme, we place great importance on fostering independence, confidence, and strong friendships within our boarding community. The programme has been thoughtfully designed to ensure there is something for everyone, encouraging students to try new experiences, develop their interests, and create lasting memories with their peers. Many of the photographs throughout this booklet capture moments from the Michaelmas and Lent Terms of this academic year, offering a glimpse into the energy and enjoyment of our recent activities.

I encourage all boarders to embrace the opportunities ahead and make the most of what promises to be a memorable and rewarding term.
