Jim Thompson, Director of Sport at Strathallan School, said, “It was a hugely enjoyable and rewarding week. For the last four years, I helped run the Strathallan Rugby camps. So when our sports camps were postponed due to Covid-19 we thought about other ways we could help parents and their children get back into the rhythm of being around each other and enjoy doing sport together again, before school starts."
"It has been such a privilege to have pupils from lots of different schools on campus, learning new skills and playing together across a number of sports. Strathallan is based in a beautiful part of Scotland and it is thanks to our extensive facilities that we've been able to host these fantastic kids."
Strathallan is working towards a full return for more than 520 boarding and day pupils, with appropriate contingencies in place to ensure the health and wellbeing of its pupils, parents and staff.
