“ Our Boarding House thrives on community, driven by our core values
of kindness, respect and friendship. Cultural diversity is one of the most exciting and vibrant elements of boarding at The Downs Malvern, and children join us from all walks of life and from throughout the
UK and abroad.
The Boarding House is a family affair,
and raising our two children here, along with our dogs, has been very special.
It is a huge privilege to be entrusted with the care of our boarders. We get to know each of them really well, spending mealtimes, evenings and weekends
with them.
Our dedicated team, including two resident matrons, ensures that they are safe, happy and supported at all times.
We have several large, well-equipped common rooms that bustle with laughter and form the core of the Boarding House, where all ages, boys and girls, socialise together. Our dormitories are bright, comfortable,
and inviting, and we encourage the children to personalise their spaces to reflect their personalities and interests, further increasing their sense of belonging.
A wide range of activities are available in the evenings and at weekends, including creative arts, sports, outdoor pursuits, and trips; however, we also understand the importance of unstructured, free time. After all, school days are action-packed, and everyone needs time to recharge their batteries.
If you ask a boarder to sum up life in our Boarding House, most will simply say ‘fun’! Quality time with friends where you can make the most of eve”ry hour of the day—what’s not to like?
