SIS' SOCIAL ROOM
Our Social Room is a welcoming space for everyone to relax, play, and connect. Enjoy games, movies, creative activities, and comfy areas to unwind with new friends!
What Does Our Social Room Offer?
Unlike many other language schools, SIS proudly offers a dedicated social room (called the Old Exchange) for Teenage and Young Adult students to use for FREE! At certain times, other age groups also have access to this facility.
The Social Room is a vibrant, welcoming space where students can relax, have fun, and connect with new friends during breaks, afternoons, and evenings. Our staff supervise students in this building. It is conveniently located just 3 minutes from our main building, May Cottage, and only 2 minutes from our Teenage Department.
The room also offers FREE Wi-Fi and handy facilities such as microwaves, toastie machines, and a kettle - perfect for preparing snacks and drinks during breaks. It includes toilet facilities and is heated during the colder months, ensuring a comfortable and practical space for students!
Students can enjoy a wide range of activities in the main social room, including pool tables, table tennis, darts, and table football.
Just outside the social room, there’s additional space featuring a basketball net, swing ball, and small football goals.
For those who prefer to relax outdoors, we also provide a small amount of undercover seating and tables - perfect for hanging out rain or shine.
Our Creative Room offers a relaxed space for students to enjoy their downtime. Whether drawing, making jewellery, playing music, reading, playing board games, or watching a film on the TV, there’s something for everyone.
We also have a Movie & Console Room, perfect for film nights and gaming sessions. Students can play on the PS4 or Nintendo Wii, or watch a DVD. This is another great space to relax, unwind, and enjoy time with new friends.
WHAT OUR STUDENTS SAY ABOUT
OUR SOCIAL ROOM
"The social room was the best part of my week. I liked playing pool and table football. It was a fun way to relax after class." Hiroshi from Japan
"I spent so much time playing board games with my friends. I just wish it was open every evening, but I understand that this is difficult to do." Elena from Italy
"The social room was great a place to spend time with my new friends. I played table tennis and pool almost every day!" Jakub from the Czech Republic
"I went to other schools before, and they didn’t have a social room. This is a big plus for this school and a big reason why I want to come back!" Luca from Italy
"I really liked the social room. It was fun to spend time there, and because it was not open every evening, we also had time to explore Sidmouth and be with our host family."
