Full Boarding
A Typical Day
A typical day for a full boarder at the Royal Alexandra and Albert School is structured yet balanced, offering a perfect blend of academic focus, co-curricular activities and personal time. From the moment students wake up, students have a well-rounded schedule that promotes both growth and personal development. Mornings begin with a hearty breakfast followed by lessons, where students are encouraged to achieve their best. After school, boarders participate in a range of co-curricular activities, followed by prep time to focus on their studies. Evenings are filled with social opportunities, ensuring students have time to unwind, connect with peers, and enjoy the comforts of the boarding house. The structure of the day helps students grow, learn and thrive in our supportive community.
