9th December 2017
Dear Parents,
Please be aware there are no more swimming sessions for our year 4 pupils this term. Lessons resume week beginning 8th January for the spring term. As swimming is part of our curriculum there is an expectation that all year 4 pupils participate- if for any reason your child cannot participate one week we need a letter explaining the reason.
As we approach Christmas the admissions team are on a final push to ensure that all pupils due to start school in September 2018 apply on time for a reception place.
If you are a nursery parent (who has a child due to start school in September) you must apply online before the 15th January 2018.
