Open Evening

Welcome to Year 6 Students and Parents

On Thursday 20th September Year 6 students and their parents, were welcomed by our students and then had the opportunity to tour the school, having listened to a presentation in the hall.

As Headteacher, I was able to set the scene, explain our ethos and direction of travel and address the question...
