The last few months have been a challenging time for our boarding community.

We learnt very early on that the first few days and weeks of boarding is a vital period for providing each girl with a great start to life at Burgess Hill Girls. As a result of this we are constantly evolving our welcome programme to match the needs and interests of the pupils.
