Enjoyment is an important part of our Holiday Activities experience, and our programmes keep all children engaged and entertained, allowing them to try different activities they may not experience during term-time. We pride ourselves on meeting the needs of all children by working together as a whole school community – our instructors are all current teaching and support staff at Royal Russell, so we can ensure the highest standard of care and responsibility.
Book a Visit
The best way to understand Royal Russell is to come and see it for yourself. Walk the grounds, meet our pupils, talk to our staff, and decide whether this is the right place for your child.
Choose from our Head’s Tours, featuring a pupil panel and the opportunity to meet the Head, or our Campus Tours, offering a more personal visit in a smaller group setting.
