MOVING UP TO MILLFIELD
WELCOME
In recent years, we have introduced visits to the
boarding and day houses for groups of Millfield Prep
parents. These informal tours give an insight into
how we support each child’s move to Millfield.
This year we are augmenting the visit with a
presentation at the start and providing individual
Year 9 tour guides who can show you any of the
campus areas you’d like to see.
I would like to extend an invitation for you to join us
for a Millfield Prep Year 9 Walkabout on Saturday 26
November 2022. Details of this event and how to
book are on Page 4.

subject to a satisfactory report from Millfield Prep.
If you do not want your child to progress to Millfield
