After nearly 15 years of excellent residential visits to Hooke Court, we are looking forward to returning there with our Year 4 cohort of children in November 2023. Hooke Court is a small, rural family-run centre that offers superb facilities and a secure environment in which to provide our pupils with an inspirational residential.

In the evenings …
