Hi JK2000,
In order to enable all boarders to know each other,the  boarding School arrange a lot of activities at the weekend, such as touring around the city and water sports. My son enjoy it and  can cope with it so far.
About 10 mins walk from boarding hse to school,WiFi is provided,but some web site are block including facebook

RobertPaPa,
May I know did your son apply for admission to Steyning through agent? Or you applied yourself? I am also looking for some state boarding schools for my son and would like to know more about the points to note. Grateful if you could advise me on the procedures, e,g. the date to apply for Y7 in 2015, to submit the application. Thank you in advance. By the way, is Steyning a selective school? As for St. George, I think it is not a selective one.
Have parents heard about Adams' Grammar School, Ripon Grammar School and The Royal Grammar School? What are your comments on them?

Hi hinhinmami,I applied the school myself through the school web site. This is a selective school,however,no admission test but will request school reference and Skype interview. If you intend to send you son to year 7 at 2015,I think you should apply at the end of 2014

RoberPaPa,
Thank you so much for your prompt response. Do you think whether it is difficult or easy to get into this school? How many boarders for Y9?

How is the weather there.?
How is the comment from you son for meal?

Re, pillows, quilt  etc, pls advise if you order via boarding house office. it is too bulky to bring.

How about the  books. ?  If The school will provide to the students  or we need to buy.

Hi, Robert papa,
typing mistake:  should be:  student package air ticket

Do you buy 1-sets "Student air ticket" and which airline you use for your son.


regards

School give each boarder 15 pound each week for spending in school and  I gave him abound 500 pounds reserved of unexpected expense. Should be enough since the school Fee include meal and outdoor activities. Or u can put some money into school for other expense

If your kid school reference and Skype interviewing is ok, I think should be no problem
