We hope you are all keeping safe and well.

Transition

As part of our normal transition process the children spend an afternoon with their new class teacher during the last week of term. Due to the Coronavirus pandemic, and in order to ensure the safety of both the children and the staff, we have taken the decision to deliver this session remotely using Microsoft Teams.

In order for the teachers to deliver the transition meetings, the school will be closed for either the whole or part of the day for eligible year groups (Reception, Year 1 and Year 6) on Thursday 9 July.

Pupils of Key Workers who require care provision on Thursday 9 July can still access this. Please contact the school office to confirm that you require a place.

Current Reception pupils:-

The school will be closed for Reception pupils for the whole day on Thursday 9 July to allow for a series of short transition visits for the new Reception intake for September.
