Visit our School

Come and
experience HCS

We are always delighted to welcome families to HCS and hold events throughout the year, designed to help you find out more about life at the school.

Our programme of regular visitor mornings let you see our school in action on a typical day, while for a broader view our open events in the Autumn and Summer terms provide a taste of the whole school.

We recommend you visit at least two full terms before you expect to join us, for either a visitor morning, an open event, or both.

Visitor Mornings

Open events

Junior School open events usually take place on a Friday morning and include a full tour of the School guided by our Year 6 pupils, plus the opportunity to meet the Head and see our teachers in action. The day starts at 9.15am and finishes around 11am.

In the Senior School and Sixth Form, open events are held on a Saturday morning in the Autumn and Summer terms, from approximately 9.15am and ending around 1.30pm. The morning includes a full tour of the school guided by our pupils, presentations from the Headmaster and Senior Monitors, and the opportunity to meet a range of our students and teachers.

The open morning was extremely useful and informative. Our tour guides were excellent company – very knowledgeable, enthusiastic and willing to share their experiences with us. We are very excited to be joining the school in September.

Thank you for such a wonderful Open Morning. We thoroughly enjoyed it and our son hasn't stopped talking about your Art & Design Department, Sports and CCF! We were very impressed by all and it was lovely to be made to feel so welcome.

Thank you very much for this morning's open day at your wonderful school. All the staff and students we met were without exception, warm, welcoming, knowledgeable and helpful. Please would you pass on our thanks to our tour guides. They were a credit to your school and made my son feel very welcome, as well as being able to answer all the questions we asked them about school life.
