Georgia's story

One of my strongest memories from my childhood is receiving my acceptance letter. I remember it so vividly. I don't remember that much of my childhood, but I remember that day - I remember hearing the doorbell going and my brother and I were watching TV. I don't know how I knew it, but I knew in the moment that I saw that letter that my life was about to change.

I was here for 7 years, from the age of 11 through to 18 and it was amazing. I loved every day here, I really did - it was such a happy time for me.

I tried everything while I was here. I had a full bursary and something I've realised, much more since I've left, is how all-encompassing the bursary programme is at CLC compared to other schools.

I'm really grateful for the way the bursary is set up here to include additional things, like I had piano lessons, which were lovely, and a school trip to Berlin, even down to tiny details like providing my Leavers Ring, so that everyone had the opportunity to have one.
