Houseroom's view of the school.
overview
Westminster Abbey Choir School exists solely for the 30 or so boys who are choristers in the Westminster Abbey choir. Set in purpose-built premises in Dean's Yard, Westminster, it caters for boys aged 8–13 on a boarding basis. Life is unashamedly centred on music, but boys also take part in a wide range of sports and extracurricular activities. The small numbers provide greater opportunity to take advantage of everything London has to offer.
