Dear Parent /Carer

I am writing to update you on the Year 6-7 transition arrangements over the next few weeks.

The transition team has completed phone calls to all parents where this was possible. It has been lovely speaking to you and getting to know you and your children a little better. I am very much looking forward to meeting them all. If we were unable to contact you and you wish to speak with us, please contact us at [email protected] and I shall ensure that we speak with you in short order.

We are excited to meet students and parents on Transition Evening that is due to take place on 22nd June 4.30-6.30pm. This will provide the opportunity for year 7 students to meet their Form Tutor, the Head of Year and myself in person. We will invite you to Gable Hall depending on your primary school - please see the attached timings and schedule. There will be an opportunity for you to ask questions and you will be glad to hear that we will invite the Uniforms shops to attend also.

Thank you for your patience with us. We look forward to ensuring that our students’ transition is as supported as it is possible to make it in this ‘New Normal’. A copy of this letter, together with a very large quantity of information including Frequently Asked Questions can be found in the following places:-

The school website. Please feel free to visit the school transition site – Gable Hall – Admissions – Primary Transition. - http://www.ortugablehall.org/450/primary-transition
