The result is an educational experience that is rich and meaningful.

Pastoral Care Program Cranbrook’s pastoral care system is based around its unique House system. Importantly the Houses at Cranbrook are not simply structures for organising the School and facilitating inter-House contests. They genuinely promote an environment in which boys feel safe gain a sense of identity at the School and become known and valued as individuals. Boarding The boarding experience teaches boys how to live in harmony with others and how to establish a routine so that they can practise sound academic habits. Being a member of the boarding community teaches boys to be independent responsible for themselves and responsible to the group so that they grow into mature and self-reliant young men. Boarding provides ample opportunity to become involved in school life. Sport drama music debating outdoor education House activities and the chance to make life-long friends are just some of the myriad opportunities available to Cranbrook boarders. The Boarding Housemasters and Tutors at Cranbrook are mentors and role models: those ‘significant adults’ who are critically important to the emotional and social well-being of adolescent boys. | ||||||||||||||||||
