Leisure or recreational time is when boarders can socialise within the community in an affirming and positive manner. Boarders have many opportunities to undertake recreational activities both formally and informally. They have access to a gym, a fitness centre, tennis courts, basketball, netball and volleyball court, a football and soccer field and swimming pools. Other activities include kayaking and cycling. Boarders can also play table-tennis, pool and snooker. There is also a Music Room and a Dance Studio; plus, a general common–purpose room equipped with a TV and a kitchen on each level. Boarders are encouraged to consider new options and become involved in other activities which contribute to creative, developmental and personal growth. Skateboarding and bicycles are allowed on the premises only if boarders and their parents have signed the relevant user contract.
