Incoming First Years Information.

Please here for  the PowerPoint for the Incoming First Year information evening. We apologise to those parents who couldn’t get into the Zoom.  We didn’t realise it was limited to 100. We will be  holding another Parents Evening in the school during September and many of the major points of information, from the February 2nd Zoom meeting will be revisited. In the meantime all of the main points covered can be viewed in the Powerpoint.
