Wheatley Park School Hall (Plus other Spaces)

Wheatley Park is a large secondary school set in extensive grounds. The history of the site is rich, including a picturesque moat island and manor house built in 1801, full of light rooms and original features. The facilities are hugely diverse, from a huge main hall with fully equipped stage to a recently built media centre perfect for conferences and corporate use.

The options are endless, from a beautiful, modern library to a drama studio or recording studio. Just off the A40, Wheatley Park is accessible both from Oxford and London, but retains a rural atmosphere thanks to its vast outdoor spaces.

Media Centre: The John Milton Centre is the newest addition to our Wheatley Park venue and is the home of the executive suite. The entrance opens into a large reception area which can be arranged as required. This alone has proved to be the perfect space for events such as drinks receptions, art exhibitions and informal musical concerts or simply a team briefing area.

Main Hall: Wheatley Park’s main hall is renowned for holding a variety of events throughout the year. At over 290msq, the hall can cater for a range of occasions where a larger venue is required. Complemented by an entrance hall and lobby area, the hall also benefits from an additional large 130msq performance stage. A spacious, commercial style kitchen lies just off the side of the hall which can be hired as an optional extra. Further optional extras include access to audio speakers and an LCD projector and screen.The main hall is ideal suited for events such as fashion shows, sporting days, theatre productions, evening functions, charity events or larger presentations and talks. The Hall can be hired separately or if an even larger space is required, in conjunction with the gym. From £30 per hour.

Manor House: Completed in 1807, this stunning building lies in a secluded part of the Park; making it perfect for private functions. The house itself is adjacent to a picturesque moated island. With its surrounding lawns and historical interest, the house creates a perfect backdrop to outdoor summer occasions. Events at the Manor House would have exclusive use of the former drawing room, which is now a ‘blank canvas’ space and can be adapted to suit events of any kind. This unique room opens out to a two-tiered terrace with rural views. For larger events these two areas are perfectly complemented by the addition of a marquee. The moated island is also available for outdoor events.
