Starting School
Welcome to our school.
We are delighted to welcome you to the start of this exciting school learning journey. Our Year R team work hard to establish nurturing relationships and are proud of the partnerships created between school and home.
We understand that for some parents, and children, the transition into school could create a lot of emotions. To support with this we have created a transition programme to ensure a smooth and happy experience for you and your child. All information that you will need, will be shared with you shortly. In the meantime, please do not hesitate to contact the school office at [email protected]
