OPEN MORNING

Saturday 21 September 2019 09:00 – 12:00 Welcome from The Headmaster

We are delighted to welcome you to College. We hope today gives you an insight into the rich and diverse life of this distinctive school. Pangbourne is a place where the individual matters – we are very much a ‘people place’ – and we hope today will show you how our pupils thrive academically, socially and morally. Please ask our staff and pupils anything you would like, and take the time to explore life at Pangbourne. If you have any other questions or would like to see more on an individual visit, please speak to a member of the Admissions team.
