I want to go to boarding school so bad but I'm ✨Broke✨ and most boarding schools are ✨Expensive✨.
**Cries in Broke**
Not all are. You could probably get a bursary or something. I've heard a lot about that.
Me too
can relate
you could check out residential public schools. you dont have to pay tuition so it’s a lot cheaper than private boarding schools
I’m getting a scholarship
We are exactly the same, but at club we get two glasses of alcohol however we are breathalysed before and after to check we haven’t had more than the units shown by two drinks.
I used to live in Oundle, I miss it so much!! Especially Beans and the Coffee Tavern
i have been begging my parents to let me go to boarding school for 4 years but they wont :(
I asked but my mum thought I was being cheeky and I got slapped
i watch another channel of a girl in boarding school, and hers is so much more lenient. they have barely any punishments. and she’s always having so much fun with her friends. they are basically allowed A LOT.

I think u watch Ella Katherine
@@lifeandliving4215 lmao why did all of us think of ella katherine-
@@scarletadele6623 yeah and my comment was 8 moths ago . Hahaha😂
Ella Katherine??
I like that you got your own room. If I could have my own room I would have tried boarding school.
So cool to see the good and bad! Can you do a Q and A? (subscriber from America!)
in poland we have now online classes for all schools, so ive been home. since 15th of october and also ON QUARANTINE until 16th of november. at least i dont have to wear mask but not leaving the house for 5 weeks is little too much for me.
Your so underrated and you super pretty xxx
Vidoe idea
Day in the life boarding school edtion or a day out with friends ( after lockdown ) ps I'm a new sub 💚
She is an amusing young lady.
ok i know this is ages ago but my room at school is wayyyyyy smaller then urs like fr. also boarding school ❤️love it❤️
I can’t stand another week and you have until Christmas have fun
“Not going home for 5 weeks”. Think yourself lucky! When I was in boarding school a friend of mines whose parents worked overseas couldn’t get him to be with them but only fit the summer! All the half-terms he spent with the headmasters family and the other two holidays he spent with Grandparents. This went on for about 3-4 years before their contract run out.
Gosh. I have friends at school who haven't been home for 4 and a half years and they won't go home until long after they graduate in June. I know the feeling. It sucks. 😓
@@mattiaspollitt3877 I must admit that I’m 60 and most of the stuff she said brought back a lot of memories! Although my dorms ranged in size from 6 to 24 people! We always had to have the windows open during the night. I just loved waking up to a room at 2 degrees Celsius! I did have fun though!
Great video!
Reminds me of my UK boarding school days as an international student. I went for sixth form 8 years ago, and they were literally the best two years of my life so far. Our rules weren't nearly as strict as yours, we could wear make up and earrings, and alcohol was frowned upon but not reeeally a punishable offence unless you're visibly inebriated... or threw up in your houseparent's kitchen sink... We had great food, our campus and boarding houses were beautiful, I did only go home twice a year and that was a bit hard, but I was glad I did it. The only complaint I have is that we had a department head who displayed favouritism, usually to pretty blonde girls, and does this subtly racist thing of speaking deliberately slowly to kids whose first language wasn't English (like myself).
Thanks for the video, brought back really lovely memories. Enjoy your school life! :)
@Cecelia C IMO boarding schools are shit I went from year 10 to year 12 and it seriously annoyed and scared the shit out of me and IMO kids while they are students in school should be living at home with either their parents or guardians not be sent to boarding school the food in my boarding school was fckg horrible and it was like been locked up prison and the students basically have no life of their own
@@Eltonlaleham I'm sorry you had such a bad experience of boarding school, it does sound horrible. I was lucky I loved mine, I would have gone for year 10 if I had known about my school earlier.
What is your boarding school?
Sounds like you have sucha great experience:)
I discovered your channel yesterday and I just wanted to know where your bed from home is from bc I’m redoing my bedroom
Dude my school legit the same, especially how bad the food is we get raw chicken all the time to the point we celebrate when somethings cooked decent
Gosh those rules sound awful😵😵 Afternoon tea tho sounds very cute✨
The afternoon tea very nice everything else is not for me
I have a a couple of questions...
1) What happens if you mess around in lessons/don't do the work/distract others?
2)You said that girls aren't allowed in the boys dorms (and vise versa) which is understandable, but what if somebody is a lesbian, gay or just generally part of the lgbtq+ community? What if you don't identify as male or female? What house would they be put in?
3) This isn't a question but I think a good video idea would be 'tips for people starting boarding school' (if you haven't done it already!)
Much love and stay safe❤
Hi there, I go to boarding school so here are some answers (a year later lol)
1) You can get detentions and house gated (not allowed to leave the boarding house) very similar to a day school
2) If someone is part of the LGBTQ community they get the choice of whether they want to share a dorm (sometimes they decide they want to have their own dorm) if they do not identify as either male or female it would be up to them to decide to go into the girls or boys house.
hope that helped x
Please upload more!!
Woah cool I have the same necklace but it's a bull
Do u drink that juice every day because almost in every vid u have that cup in ur hand for a while
Oh my gosh you go to Oundle, right? my dad went there I start at Uppingham next year
You started talking about school food! Things haven’t changed then, especially the fish pie! Our tea was so stewed I literally couldn’t tell tea from coffee when I went home for the holidays. The macaroni cheese was inedible. We used to try and getaway with eating just one piece! Please let me know if it has changed?
I don't know why school food is so often disgusting. It's as if the management just doesn't care. Before I went into hospital for major surgery eight years ago, people said, ooh be prepared for some awful food. But actually the food was very good throughout the nine days I was in. Before you could really enjoy a full meal, since after the surgery you don't have much of an appetite, you could order a sandwich and the hospital made these egg mayonnaise sandwiches fresh that were simply the best. Later, we had roast dinners with all the trimmings, plus a choice of desserts. This was a normal NHS hospital in Nottinghamshire. But it's all down to the management, whether schools, hospitals, or the military. Did nobody put in an official complaint about the food at your school?
@@SuperLittleTyke I was at boarding school in the 1970’s. If there was a way of complaining officially we weren’t told! If there was I wouldn’t bet our chances of getting improved food, more likely the food would’ve got worse!
@@marcuswardle3180 Yes, anyone in authority doesn't like their authority being challenged. It's as if they feel under threat. I didn't go to boarding schools, but the food at all the state schools and later college I attended was good. Not brilliant, and I hated the custard that was always too thick, but generally it was okay. All my schooling happened in Kent, so maybe that county put school meals at the top of its agenda. The problem at boarding schools is that everybody only has the one choice.
Every time you talk about table tennis and pool you always forget one
my brother was gonna go to oundle
Do you go to boarding school by choice?
omg at my boarding school they have shit food but good afternoon tea as well ahhh omg
Do you have any tips I might go next year
You said that you get kicked out if you drink alcohol but you also said you're given wine during house swaps.
What do u think was the best girls house at oundle?
In the state school I went to make up wasn't allowed.
Lol I'm a boy and I watched almost all of it vids😂😂
Lol my brother drinks that same juice(ROBINSON’S) every day, just diluted
You are so pretty ❤️
Also how old are you?? 😗
Wearing mask🤔we have already been wearing it for almost a year when we get outside in Hong Kong 😞
Your boarding school is way stricter than our omg I would not survive no alcohol like we don’t even get punishment for vamping wtf redoing prep and no earrings or makeup praying 4 u 💌💌
where do you learn?
It really depends on the school. There are way stricter ones, like Christ’s Hospital for example. And then really relaxed ones like Hertwood House
thank you
(for the bed)
Which boarding school? Sorry I’m new to the channel. 😞
Are you allowed to order take aways or have sleepovers? Are small pets allowed? :)
No pets you can have sleepovers on the weekend and yea you can get delivery food
@@Khylle_1 The pets part is sad, but the rest sounds good. Thank you for answering. :)
Yeh u can’t have pets (except in my house one girl did sneak in a fish tank with a fish lol), and then at my school u don’t have sleepovers with other houses and yes takeaways are what get u through the week because food is awful!!!
@@DizzyLizzy12 Thank you for replying. That's so interesting! I'm glad you have the take-aways to get you through! 😅
@@Khylle_1 in my boarding school you can bring small pets and leave them in the science lab the only pet you can have in your dorm is a fish
Thank u for making ur bed
Hey
lol im going to military school for having a C in math....
Don't you think the no-drug rule is a good thing?
Ye I do I was more just saying rules in general x
Of course
Where I live it’s still 75° regularly 🌝
She was using °c not °f
@@mistythecat3050 ahhh ok thanks I’m used to Fahrenheit 🤦🏼♀️
canu do whats on ur phone
I went to boarding school it was fckg scary and it scared and annoyed the shit out of me IMO kids should while they are students in school live at home with their parentsor their guardians not be sent away from home to be brought up by total and utter strangers because the kids need to live at home until they grow up end their shitty student lives leave school and become adults.
please tell that to my mom 😭
my dad wants me to go but my mum doesnt. i live with just my mum but going to boarding school would be a godsend for me bc my mum has anger issues and makes going about school very difficult and stressful. Going to a boarding school would mean i could focus on schooling and actually see my friends outside of school. its different for everyone IMO
A very charming young lady,, but where is the school ??? Scotland ???
You sounded a bit like liv Bentley in this haha
