Caterham School – English & Activity course
(boys and girls, aged 8-14)
Our Caterham centre, now in its seventh season, specialises in junior courses and offers two very popular programmes:
 English and Activity courses for boys and girls aged 8-14 with extra options of golf coaching or performing arts (drama and dance)
Soccer and English courses for boys only aged 9-14 run in association with Manchester United Soccer Schools (see page 12 & 13)
Caterham School has proved to be an extremely popular venue for younger children. This comes as no surprise as the campus occupies the whole of one end of a wooded valley at the point where the South London suburbs meet the open countryside: a safe and idyllic setting which is also easily accessible from airports and major attractions, including London itself.
The town of Caterham is just a mile away from the school and offers the opportunity for supervised shopping and recreation.
