Everyone looks after each
other and that's why I like it
so much. We are a big but
close-knit family...
I moved to Monmouth because of the wide
range of subjects on offer, including Latin.
I was worried about being away from my mum
and dad but I started to feel at home within a
couple of weeks. Getting to experience a variety
of cultures and customs has been very exciting.
The staff and students are kind and supportive
too. The staff are fun and talk to you regularly
to make sure you are alright. It's an adventure
coming to a boarding school. The mixture
of activities on offer, the commitment and
dedication of the boarding staff, and the food
are the best things. As a boarder, you build
strong connections with friends which will,
hopefully, last a lifetime.
I am hoping to continue at the school and
study for my A levels in the co-educational
Sixth Form.
