New Twilight Boarding service launched for day pupils in Years 5 to 13

St Mary's is delighted to launch a new Twilight Boarding service for day pupils in Years 5 to 13.

The new Twilight Boarding service has been introduced to allow students to extend their day at St Mary's up to 8.30pm on weekday (Mon-Fri) evenings.

This new service meets a growing demand from busy parents for high quality after-school care and offers all the benefits of our experienced team of boarding staff and the brilliant facilities at Mary Ward House.

Twilight Boarding sessions are completely flexible and can be accessed on either a regular or ad-hoc basis, depending on each student's needs.
