ACTIVITIES

The many activities which are an integral part of the life of this busy community are not regarded as "extra-curricular" at the Royal Alexandra and Albert School. They form part of the everyday experience of pupils here.

Both Boarders and Flexi Boarders benefit from the many activities that are available. The Co-Curriculum Activities Programme begins at 4pm and, dependent on the activity, can finish anywhere between 5pm and 9pm. 

The School has its own indoor swimming pool and riding stables as well as grass pitches, floodlit netball courts, astroturf pitch and sprints track. Pupils can also take part in numerous other activities including many team and individual sports, dance, kayaking or the Duke of Edinburgh Award programme, to name but a few.
