2026 Entry

We are excited to show you the fun that students have with us - come and get involved with everything from fires to performing, running to puzzle-solving.

We are hosting four sessions at the times detailed below, and we invite parents to register by geographical area in order to minimise any disruption to their son's primary school.

  • Session 1: 8.30am-10.15am (RG1, RG2 and RG30 postcodes)
  • Session 2: 10.15am-12pm (RG4, RG5, RG8 and RG31 postcodes)

  • Session 4: 1.45pm-3.30pm (families interested in boarding and other RG, OX, SL and GU in-catchment postcodes)

250 family tickets are available per session.

One family ticket is for two adults and one child. We will be admitting visitors on a ticket-only basis.
