The Perse Summer School

Welcome to The Perse Summer School website for 2021.

Our summer school takes place over four weeks from 5 – 30 July and is open to all children between 7 and 14 years.

What courses do we offer?

We offer a wide range of courses. If you are sporty, you might want to take part in our hockey course, taught by former England international hockey player Jon Peckett. Or why not improve your culinary skills in one of our cookery classes or learn how to survive in the wild with our outdoor pursuits courses? Take a look through our website to find something for you.

How long are the courses?

Most of our courses run for a week of mornings or afternoons. Full details for each course are available on our website.

What makes our summer school unique?

Our courses offer children the opportunity to experience the first class teaching that we offer, in an inspiring environment, learning new skills taught by our highly qualified teachers at the same time as having lots of fun. You can be inspired, discover a new passion, and make new friends too.

Is The Perse Summer School just for Perse pupils?

Our summer school is open to children from all schools.

You do not need to be a pupil at The Perse or have any connection with the school to join us.

In fact, a large number of children who attend our summer school come from schools across Cambridgeshire, so you can make lots of new friends from different schools when you join us this summer.
