Our afternoon activities run daily, except for Wednesday afternoons, when students will be on an off-site excursion.

Our Specialist Academies must be pre-booked in advance at the time of booking, but our Multi-Activities sessions can be signed up for on a daily basis by students when they are here.

Communications with Parents

It's natural for parents to want to know what their children are doing, and how they are progressing in their classes.  To keep you informed, the staff at Kilgraston Summer School have several methods in which to communicate with you:
  • Weekly progress report 
This will include comments from the class teacher, our activities team, and our residential team, giving a little information on what your child has been doing and how they have been progressing each week.  This will be emailed to the parent or the parent's agent on the Saturday of each week.  This is only available for international students and domestic students staying for a full 7-day week.
  • Social media channels: Facebook, Instagram & Twitter
We will post regular photos and videos of students, from classwork to activities, social events and excursions on our Social Media accounts.  If you follow these you'll hopefully get to see your child in action during each week they are here with us.  Please note: you will have to consent to your child appearing in these on our booking form.  If you don't give consent, we will ensure that your child does not feature in posts on our social media channels.
  • Weekly highlights video
Each week, we will put together a highlights video of what students have been doing.  This will also be emailed to parents or the parent's agent at the end of the week, but on a Sunday (so we include videos from Saturday's excursion).  The same consent details will apply to this as with the Social Media consent.
