The Chess Society is a welcoming and inclusive club for students of all skill levels — from complete beginners to experienced players. Our aim is to teach the fundamentals of chess, as well as advanced tactics and strategic thinking. Weekly sessions include guided lessons, puzzle-solving, friendly matches, and tournament play. Whether you're learning how the pieces move or sharpening your endgame, the Chess Society offers a fun and challenging environment to develop your skills and enjoy the game.

DoE involves helping the community/environment; becoming fitter; developing new skills; planning, training for and completing a four-day walking expedition and, for Gold only, working with a team on a residential activity.

Eco Schools is all about making sure that the college is as ‘green’ as possible and that we continue to cut our carbon footprint and do our bit for the planet. The Eco Schools Committee brings together students and staff to make important decisions. It also plays a vital role in helping to inform everyone how they can have a positive impact.
