Farleigh School

From Wikipedia, the free encyclopedia

Farleigh School is an IAPS Roman Catholic boarding and day prep school of approximately 400 children. Situated in 60 acres of parkland in the Test Valley, Hampshire, the school was founded as a male boarding school in 1953 by the late Jocelyn Trappes-Lomax.

Since moving to Red Rice in 1982, the school has acquired an indoor swimming pool, a new art and DT facility, and a new headmaster. Father Simon Everson, in addition to his duties as headmaster at Farleigh School, also takes responsibility as chaplain at the school.

It has been located in a Georgian country house previously named Red Rice House, where George III was married to Maria Anne Fitzherbert, since 1982. The house is situated in the hamlet Red Rice, near Andover, Hampshire.
