Boarding is a major life event for young people and a great opportunity to build communities of lifelong friends as well as gain critical life skills that will serve them well into the future. A Rite of Passage is a transformational process that has been part of cultures globally for thousands of years and particularly celebrates and acknowledges the transition from child to young adult.

Unfortunately, we know that boarding has not been a positive experience in the past for all young people, and current research tells us that, at a time when we would like to see them happy and thriving, too many students are struggling with mental health issues.
