Dear Parents / Carers of Year 6 pupils,

I trust and hope that you and your families are well? Owning to the restrictions placed on groups of individuals coming together as a result of the ongoing COVID -19 pandemic we will not be able to hold our annual Open Evening. We are very sorry for the inconvenience this may cause. However, it is important that the health and wellbeing of our must take priority during these challenging times. In response to this we will be producing a virtual open evening, which will include videos and virtual tours of the school. This will be ready to view by October half term.
