Year 5 and 6 Experience Events 2023
We hope to be able to invite Year 5 to participate in one of our popular ‘Experience Events’ to find out more about our school by experiencing some real lessons in subjects such as Science, Design Technology, Arts and Physical Education. We also provide the opportunity for a school tour and for parents to meet us and ask any questions.
These will take place in June and July 2023 Parental tours and discussion with senior staff will take place at 4-00pm.
If you have any questions about admissions or open events, please either use the Contact Us form or telephone Kerry Burns, the Office Manager on 01732 353544 Ext. 240.
