To be at Glenalmond is to be part of a genuine community.

We mix easily and get to know one another, we dine together and we see each other daily in Chapel. There is always something to do and someone to do it with. Community also means responsibility and everyone is expected to look after their peers.

At every level we work to enhance social interaction and offer a full programme of weekend activities. The Sixth Form has its own centre, The Moncrieff, which is open every lunchtime and evening and which bridges the social environments of school and university.

There are frequent academic and adventure expeditions abroad and our senior sporting teams tour regularly. Every year, pupils and staff participate in our exchange with Brooks School in Massachusetts, one of New England's leading boarding schools. Closer to home, Community Service introduces the pupils to the lives of people in very different circumstances to their own. From weekly outings into nearby Perth, to field and theatre trips, there is always one group or another out exploring and getting to know the wider community.
