BOARDING //

FAIRCOTE

What a year it has been at Faircote ! As we come towards the end of the year , we can reflect on the challenges and changes that the girls tackled head on – showing the courageous and loving community throughout the house .
We started the year with the junior and senior houses merged . Whilst this could have proved insurmountable , instead it did not affect the affectionate atmosphere – both houses shared a bond of sisterhood as we created wonderful memories such as the Christmas Ball followed by karaoke , and many dance nights .
Further into the year , we celebrated senior activities such as the Cheese & Wine Evening , which allowed both Faircote and Fenwick-Smith boarders to enjoy a mature social occasion , preparing them for adulthood as we mingled , chatted , and refreshed our palates with the finest cheese and wine .
