YEAR 6 INDUCTION DAY Our Year 6 Induction Day is on Monday 14th July. This will inevitably mean that the bus park will be extremely busy on Monday morning whilst all existing and new students arrive. For our existing students If you get dropped off by car in the mornings, please allow extra time for drop off and be aware that there will be no available parking spaces. There will be a drop off queue in operation and staff will be on hand to escort students safely across the bus park and onto the tennis courts. For our new Year 6 students We will have traffic control in place, a drop off queue and staff in the bus park waiting to safely escort your children from your car to the school hall. You will not be able to park up as we do not have the requisite space in the bus park. Please prepare your child to be dropped off and leave the drop off lane promptly under the instruction of the site team to avoid the main road becoming gridlocked. We will have site staff out in order to park cars for pick up from 2pm and will have all Year 6 students departed from school before the buses arrive for the end of the school day. We look forward to welcoming you on Monday!

HOT WEATHER - UNIFORM Due to the exceptional weather forecast today as temperatures move into the 30s, students may choose between wearing no ties and blazers OR wearing full SWRA PE kit (including trainers) from the beginning of the day. Temperatures are predicted to return to below 30 tomorrow when we expect to return to the reduced expectation that simply blazers do not need to be worn. Reminder- Please ensure students bring a water bottle and appropriate sunscreen every day.
