MEYER THEATRE SPORTS HALL
Sir Gareth Edwards My name is Gemma. I joined Millfield in Year 9 as a
Pitch
EQUESTRIAN boarder and became a day student in Year 10. While there
CENTRE LOBBY &
Campus ADMISSIONS are fewer day students compared to boarders, I love the
P Manege Astro N Tennis Courts balance of being able to go home in the evenings whilst
INDOOR ARENA
still experiencing the strong sense of community in house, I
D believe it’s the best of both worlds.

Entry to Golf Course WILSON PAVILION For six days a week, Overleigh feels like my home on
Boarding Houses F campus. It is a welcoming and friendly environment where
E CRICKET CENTRE
there is always someone to talk to - whether it’s girls from
B3151
Somerton GOLF CENTRE different year groups, the house managers, or the house
parent and assistant houseparent. One of the things I love
O
Junior Field most about being a day student is the opportunity to be a
H

I even help with schoolwork and revision.
SWIMMING POOL
I often spend time in house during lunch or after school,
Athletics Track whether to study in the quiet workspaces or to relax in the
common room, chatting with friends on the sofas or playing
a round of pool.

House events bring everyone together as a community,
T Butleigh creating some of my best memories at Millfield. From sports
Kingweston
Keen’s Elm Field competitions to house singing, Overleigh always competes

with pride in our emerald green colours. These events always
R bring us closer, and I love how they allow me to connect with
even more people in house.
