Cranleigh Prep entered the IAPS 6-a-side qualifier, held at Danes Hill School, at the end of a successful, unbeaten season.

In addition, […]

There was huge excitement last night at the annual boarders’ Roller Disco in the Wyatt Hall. Top tunes were played by the visiting DJ and a whole array of funky and spectacular moves were demonstrated by all.

Katharine Hepburn once said, “As one goes through life, one learns that if you don’t paddle your own canoe, you don’t move.” It was with this in mind that Mrs Schutte set off to Southwater Watersports Centre, with 10 excited Upper School boys and girls, keen to learn how to paddle their own canoes.

The Chapel looked wonderful yesterday morning, as pupils and staff took part in a lovely service taken by Tim Lewis, Chaplain of Cranleigh School, celebrating the Harvest Festival.
