Taster Days

Two years before entry, potential pupils are invited to attend a Taster Day, to give them a feel for life at Milton Abbey, a chance to see boarding Houses and the opportunity to meet others joining at the same time.

Whilst our site is currently closed to external visitors; we would like to let you know that our Taster Days will be held virtually and take a different format. Please register your interest with admissions@miltonabbey.co.uk if you would like to hear more about the forthcoming events. Please us the below information as a guide to how we usually run these events.

Our usual Taster Day format

With a choice of indoor and outdoor activities to choose from, Taster Days are designed to be a relaxed and lighthearted introduction to the school. We hold two Taster Days every academic year and pupils are welcome to attend more than one!

Our Taster Day activities include:
  • Sports sessions led by our specialist coaches
  • Creative sessions in Art, Design & Technology or Media Production
  • Our infamous 'Fun with numbers (yes, really!)' lesson
  • Practical activities in Cookery, Music & Drama or Woodland Pursuits
  • A Tuck Shop visit and lunch with the current Third Form
  • Visit to a Boarding House
  • Refreshments, welcome from the Head and a Q&A session for parents
