For the very first time we had Chelsea Football Club running an Easter holiday club here at the College. They were able to use our football pitches. They were here from the 2-5 April. Luckily the weather was good and not too much rain! We always have clubs running here in the holiday period, so if you think in the future we could help you please contact events@stgeorgesweybridge.com or look on our St Georges website with the clubs that are happening each holiday period.

Surrey Hockey
Surrey Hockey hosted the first DC camp of the cycle at St George's College Weybridge 19-21st July with U13 and U14 boys and girls participating. The players are taking part in the first stage of the Development Cycle. Successful players will be invited to an assessment training session in September from where the Age group squads will be selected.
Surrey Hockey chose to use St George's college as a venue due to its central location and excellent facilities attracting players from the northwest of the county.
Last season 22 St George’s College students represented Surrey Academy squads in the 2022/23 Cycle with 10 receiving Southern Counties Championship medals with Boys U13 and Girls U14.
Surrey Academy is a training program of five training sessions ending with four match days playing triangular tournaments with counties in the Southeast of England.
Surrey Hockey hope to be back at St George's soon.

These were St Charles Borromeo Monday 10 July, Chertsey High School Wednesday 12 July and Salesians School Tuesday 18 July. Luckily the temperatures were not as hot as last summer when they were here! The pupils really enjoy their Sports Days here and have lots of fun up on our Athletic track.
Please see feedback from the schools involved:
St Charles Borromeo:
I would like to express our thanks for this afternoon and for all of the great work that goes behind the scenes to make our sports day possible.
Thank you to the team of drivers and grounds staff who got everything prepared and thank you to you too.
Hopefully, we can book ourselves in again next year? It makes such a difference for the children and parents.
Have a good break when it comes.
Chertsey High School:
Hey,
Oh, it was great thanks! Your guys were so helpful 🙂
It started raining early in the day but thankfully didn't last long.
The kids loved it!
Thanks again for everything!
Salesians School:
All good yesterday - thank you so much once again for allowing us to have our Sports Day at SGC!
I believe the millions of photos are currently being uploaded to the photo store.
If all is Ok can we book in the same time next year please?
