Overseas Students

Overseas students are welcomed at St Richard's and we are now delighted to be receiving the second generation from some families!  Transport can be arranged, usually via Heathrow, and children are escorted to and from the airport by a member of staff.

Younger children come initially for a short visit during the second half of the Summer term before committing to a longer stay of either one or two terms or more often, the whole year.

Enduring friendships have been formed in the past resulting in many English children visiting foreign countries as guests of their overseas friends in return for previous hospitality.

National days are great fun and enjoyed annually by the whole school.  The overseas students are encouraged to share their culture, tastes in music and food with their fellow students for a day, and a real spirit of community and shared culture is engendered.
