From age 8, the girls reside together in small dormitories in ‘Butterstone’, the Prep boarding house. We recognise the importance of providing a comfortable, homely environment for the youngsters, many of whom will be away from their parents for the first time.

Kilgraston Prep pupils fully benefit from Kilgraston’s boarding facilities and it also provides opportunity for girls both local, national and international to be together in a truly caring and exciting school environment.

To accommodate the needs of younger children, the Preparatory School offers boarders a choice of Full, Weekly or Flexi boarding. Rates are available from the Bursar’s office. There are also occasions when day girls wish to board for a night or two. We encourage this and a scale of charges is available from the Bursar.

Our highly professional, caring staff ensure that the girls feel welcome, happy and involved at all times, and there is always something fun on the calendar such as a party, outing or adventure to look forward to!
