See the Poole's House Virtual Tour Poole’s is a happy, vibrant and busy house and our aim is to make the girls quickly feel ‘at home’ here. Staff are always available to lend a hand, offer a friendly word of advice or a sympathetic ear. Exceptionally friendly and positive, Poole’s girls are involved in a wide range of school and House-based activities and are a multi-talented group. Beginning September 2008 we will have 79 girls aged 8 – 13 years of age, including 25 boarders. The House is made up of boarders and day girls; many of our day girls come to board on an occasional basis and all are welcome to make full use of our excellent House facilities. Our house team is composed of enthusiastic tutors and matrons. ![]() Completely renovated in August 2006, Poole’s boasts:
Daygirls arrive from 8am onwards and can stay until shortly before bedtime. Many day girls stay on for tea and some for Prep depending on their routine and parental wishes. There is a full weekend programme of activities for the boarders to enjoy, ranging from trips to Longleat to ten pin bowling, from ice skating to jewellery making! ![]() ![]() Poole’s Staff:Our team of staff who help to run the House includes the two resident House Tutors, Miss Jean Davies and Mrs Liz Mawson, and five non-resident tutors: Miss Alexa Toy, Mrs Hannah Digby, Mrs Helen Bradley, Miss Gwenn Williamson and Mrs Zoe Johnson. We also have three student Gap tutors who live in the House and our team of Matrons is led by Mrs Chryssa Taplin. We are fortunate to have such an excellent team of House staff and we are all looking forward to an active, productive and, above all, happy school year. There will always be two members of staff on duty – usually a matron and tutor, or a GAP student and tutor.
