Verites

If you fancy living in a beautiful building with stunning views then you couldn’t ask for anything better. As a building, the architecture is just immense, the huge towers and the beautiful structure take your breath away. The view of the immaculate First Team cricket pitch and Big Ground are just incredible. In Verites, the boys are very welcoming and they create a warm atmosphere from the day you arrive. Mr Reid is a very enthusiastic and welcoming Head of House. He involves everyone in the House with House sports and House music.

Verites is a very rounded House with people from all over the world and as a House we are very diverse. We have people who love music and people who love sports but also people who are strongly academic.

Overall, Verites is an amazing House and I would urge everybody to seize the opportunity to board there if they can.

Year 9 pupil

Verites makes you feel at home and is a place for all-rounders. Everyone in the House gets on very well and there is rarely friction between pupils. It is well located, close to lessons so easy to come back to House between lessons. Being in Verites means being part of a really close community and it is Mr Reid that makes the place feel like that. This is one of the reasons why I think Verites is the best House!

Year 10 pupil

Verites is a not merely a boarding House, but a community: all year groups and all people get along, forming a coherent and harmonious atmosphere. What is especially great is the diversity of this House with our clear mix of academics, sportsmen and musicians, which allows any new pupils to meet different personalities and see other aspects of the School. It is a truly amazing House that is multi-faceted and welcoming to all.

Year 13 pupil

The boarding experience at Charterhouse contributes extremely well to pupils’ independence and self-determination to achieve highly.
