Boarding options at SSHL

Boarding options

At SSHL, we offer 3 alternatives for boarding:

  • SSHL Traditional Boarding – travel home certain weekends
  • Full Boarding – stay all weekends
  • Weekly Boarding – travel home every weekend

Please note: a few weekends every school year require mandatory attendance. The school closes for all boarders on national and school holidays.

No matter the boarding option, all boarding students benefit from the sense of community, academic excellence, breadth and quality of sport and extracurricular activities that are the signature of an education at SSHL.

SSHL Traditional Boarding

Our traditional boarding allows students to make the very most of their time at SSHL, but also to spend weekend time to connect with family and friends at home.

The student lives at the school 7 days a week, except for holidays and a set number of weekends according to the school’s calendar.

Full Boarding

The full boarding option gives the student access to boarding facilities all weekends that are not part of national or school holidays.

The student stays on campus 7 days a week, except for national or school holidays. This option is particularly suitable for students who cannot easily travel to their homes and families on weekends.

Weekly Boarding

Weekly boarding ensures time at home every weekend for students who have the possibility to commute weekly. However, please note that a few weekends every school year are mandatory also for weekly boarders.

This weekly Monday through Friday option is there to provide support to busy families whose work and life commitments put pressure on the logistics of school and extracurriculars. In comparison with day-school options, weekly boarding gives students seamless access to additional academic support, sports and extracurricular activities.
