Experience Taster Days for Year 2 students – Junior School

OUR BRAND-NEW TASTER DAY IS the ideal opportunity for children currently in Year 2 to experience what a day is really like at our Junior School. Students will have fun in a range of lessons including Science, Art, PE and Music, making new friends, meeting current students, and sampling our delicious lunch (of course!).

The children don't get to have all the fun though - after dropping off your child and grabbing coffee and a croissant, parents are invited to join a tour of the Junior School.  At pick-up time our Head Ben Tagg will give parents a short talk just before children finish their sessions for the day. You're then welcome to stay and mingle with staff and other parents.
