Reception New Starters 2025
Welcome everybody!
Welcome to our virtual school!
It is important to us that you and your child feel happy, confident and safe when you join our school family. It is designed to ensure that both our children and our parents are very familiar and comfortable with both the school and the staff before your child begins school in September. This means that when your child officially joins our school family at the beginning of September, they are able to settle quickly and feel happy in their new school environment.
Primary school applications are open from 3 September 2024 until 15 January 2025.
