We sail at Farmoor, using boats from the Oxford and District Schools’ Sailing Association. Our aim is to improve boathandling skills in a range of both single and double handers – and to encourage racing. Absolute beginners can learn with the School, and for those with more experience there is a chance to enter regattas and to sail against other schools, as well as to race in keelboats. It is also possible to do D of E expeditions. Some boys will progress to take their instructor’s qualification before they leave the School.

We also practice and take examinations for the RYA Day, Coastal Skipper and Yachtmaster exams and in 2011 a group of middle and upper school pupils cruised in the Greek Islands.

We now publish a sailing blog.
