creativity.
History of Sussex House School:
Founded
in 1952, Sussex House School is a preparatory school situated in the heart of
Chelsea, London in a Norman Shaw house in Cadogan Square. A Gymnasium and Music
School are housed in a converted chapel in Cadogan Street. The school is an
independent charitable trust.
There
is a full-time teaching staff of 20. Creative subjects are given a strong
emphasis and throughout the school boys take Music and Art. Team sports take
place at a nearby park. Cricket is the main summer sport and there are
opportunities for tennis, swimming, indoor football and golf. All boys have
physical education classes and Sussex House is a centre of excellence for
fencing.
Cultural
and creative activities play a major role, including theatrical productions in
a West End theatre, an annual exhibition of creative work featuring large-scale
architectural models and an annual competition of poetry written by boys. There
is a strong bias towards music and a programme of choral and orchestral
concerts. A large number of pupils play musical instruments and there is a
record of musical awards to senior schools. The school provides a range of
sporting and cultural trips.
