Key Dates

 

To the students, parents and carers of Year 7

 

We are so excited to welcome you to our community. We are working hard to ensure you have a safe, informative and exciting transition to secondary school!

On Wednesday 6th July, the new Year 7 should come to school at 8:40am for their intake day. They will be greeted at the main entrance and escorted to one of our playgrounds where they will line up in their tutor groups. Parents, and Carers, we know this is an exciting day for you too and we appreciate that walking your child to school and making sure they are okay is important to you. However, can we kindly ask that once your child is safely on school premises, that you move away from the entrance in order to avoid congestion.

Once in tutor groups, the children will be taken to their tutor room where they will spend some time getting to know their classmates, Tutor and co-tutor. They will also attend some lessons and visit the student canteen, The Rookery.  

Students will be dismissed at 2.50pm.
