You would think by now that the students are ready for bed, not at all! Somehow they find the extra energy from somewhere and they must be catered for!Once again a range of activities is available. For the more active, sports continue. These often take the form of competitions in the evening. Who will be this week's table tennis champion, or Brain of Hurtwood? Who would like to go ice skating or Stock Car racing? Who would like to act, dance or sing in our very own Theatre? Students love the thrill of performing in front of their peers whether it be in a Saturday night cabaret or play. Even those who would rather avoid the limelight are keen to help with the lighting, costumes, scenery and so on. Once again, there is a lively involvement, both in coaching behind the scenes and performing on stage. You should have seen their dance routine last year! The Theatre is superbly equipped to professional standards with seating for two hundred. This gives added atmosphere to performances which are highly polished and immensely popular. It is a feature of the Hurtwood House Summer Course that staff and students join in all that is happening. Whether it is a lesson or a football match, a visit to Madame Tussaud's or entertainment in the Theatre, you will find staff and students working, playing and relaxing together. We believe it is this wholehearted commitment to, and involvement in, the Summer Course on the part of everyone concerned that makes it such an effective and enjoyable way to learn. |

This truly is the best Summer School. The variety and choice of activities is incredible. I have stayed 5 weeks this year and haven’t been bored once!
