Open Events and Tours

Open Events at Abbot’s Hill

We are always delighted to welcome families to the school and especially proud of our Open Days.

Saturday Open Day – Each September, visitors will hear from the Head, deputies and current pupils, followed by the opportunity to explore all subjects, visit many classrooms and enjoy our 76-acre campus in the company of our delightful pupils. Staff, parents and pupils are also available throughout the campus for questions, and our infamous catering team provide a wonderful breakfast for you to enjoy.

In Action Morning – These events take place throughout the year and whilst the school is in session. Parents will hear from the Head, members of the leadership team and current pupils, after which they enjoy a pupil-guided tour around the School. Pupils can join in with various themed activities during the tour. In Action days give visitors an accurate experience of daily school life at Abbot’s Hill.

Please note we invite parents to attend both types of open events as well as book a private tour if they wish, in order to get a full picture of life at Abbot’s Hill School.

For parents looking for occasional places, please contact the Admissions Team, in the first instance to establish availability.

There are many ways to get a taste of life at Abbot’s Hill – whatever you choose, you can be sure of a warm welcome. We are very proud of everything that goes on each day in our classrooms, outside in the 76 acres of parkland and through our extensive co-curricular programme, and our pupils are always keen to meet prospective families and chat about their experiences at school.  We know that our pupils are our very best ambassadors!

Please see below for details about forthcoming events.

School in Action Morning, Tuesday 28th April 10.00-12.00

See our school as it really is — on a normal school day

The best way to get a true feel for our school is to visit when it’s buzzing with everyday life. Our School in Action Morning offers prospective families the chance to experience our 4–16 school in full flow — from lively lessons and creative spaces to the warm, purposeful atmosphere that makes our community so special.

During the morning, you’ll enjoy a relaxed, guided tour of the school while lessons are taking place, with opportunities to:

• Drop in on classes across the age range (4–16) and see teaching and learning in action

• Chat with pupils and staff to hear first-hand what life here is really like

• Explore our facilities and grounds and get a sense of the opportunities on offer

• Enjoy refreshments and meet other visiting families

• Hear from the Head and key members of staff, with plenty of time for questions

Whether you’re just beginning your search or already considering your next steps, this is a friendly, informative morning designed to help you feel confident about what matters most: how your child will learn, grow and thrive here.

Spaces are limited — we’d be delighted to welcome you.
