Dear «Forename»

Your College Induction Day is on Friday 30th June 2017

The Induction day is part of the transition from leaving school to starting at college and represents an important part of your college year. The Induction Day is designed to:

· Allow you to sample most of the courses offered at Level 2.

· Meet some of the staff who will be teaching on your course.

· Give you the opportunity to familiarise yourself with the college site.

· Inform you of the arrangements for the beginning of term.

Please arrive for a 9.00am start and go straight to the IT Suite in the main building. This will be your tutor base for the day. There will be staff or Student Crew in reception to help you find your way. Your tutor for the day is Melanie Allen.

Arrangements for the day:

· The day starts at 9.00 am and finishes at approximately 3.15 pm.

· Please check travel and other arrangements and ensure that you allow time to find your room ready for a prompt start at 9.00 am.

· You do not have to wear school uniform.

· Drinks, cold sandwiches and hot food will be available to purchase in the Courtyard but, if you prefer, you can bring your own food.
