Transition Timeline 2025

UPDATED  

Due to a production issue at our external print suppliers, the distribution of our transition packs has been pushed back a week. They will now be sent out towards the end of next week (week commencing 30th June). We apologise for any inconvenience caused. 

 

Transition Packs containing essential information about the school, including uniform and equipment requirements, our daily routines and information about catering, systems, and communications, will be posted directly home to you.

The arrival of the packs is timed to enable you to read and digest information ahead of the Year 6 Parents’ Evening, where you can ask any questions you may have. Packs will also contain a Data and Consent form which must be completed and returned to the school at the Year 6 Parents’ Evening.

Monday 9th June and Monday 23rd June 

 

Between 3.30pm and 4.30pm on these dates, we will be running a Treasure Hunt for Year 6 pupils and their parents. This will help pupils familiarise themselves with the school ahead of the main transition events. This will also be a suitable introduction to the school for anyone feeling a little bit anxious about joining us. Further information will follow in June, including how to book a place.
