Iona House

David and Corinna Dawson are the Houseparents of Iona and bring a wealth of teaching and pastoral experience, their family and their chickens with them to Iona House.

Support and encouragement

We will always endeavour to give your daughter support, care and encouragement to develop her strengths and to appreciate the talents of others whilst being happy and secure:

“You share rooms with friends. You may not have known them before, but they soon become your friends.”

We hope she will feel it is very much her home in term time.

“It’s like having twenty-nine sisters!”

A welcoming environment

Visitors find all our girls welcoming, polite and considerate of those around them. Always ready to listen to others, they know the importance of good manners and punctuality, and are friendly and thoughtful.

Taster sessions

We would love you to visit us in person to see our house for yourselves.
