Families of children in Year 6 – it is time to start thinking about applying for a secondary school place for September 2027!
Applications opened from the 12th September but there’s no advantage to applying early, so you have time to attend Open Evenings before making an application.
However, for the best chance of a place at your preferred school, you do need to ensure that you have applied, either online (and submitted your application), or by returning a Secondary Application Form by the national deadline of 31st October 2026.
We have some dates booked in for ‘show rounds’ in our Early Years Unit for September 2027 new starters:
With school back in full swing, we’re preparing for our next few events. This year, we’ve changed the cake sale day from Monday back to Friday, as although on Mondays we had a lot of people baking over the weekend, we didn’t seem to have as many buyers or volunteers, as there was maybe a clash with after-school clubs. Also, we’ll be doing two bigger sales per half-term by batching up year groups. So, on 2nd Oct (KS2) and 9th Oct (EY/KS1), please bring your cakes, cards and cash!
Friends’ AGM is on Thursday 24th September at 6.30 – 8pm at The Middle Bottle Shop and Bar, Fulford Road. Everyone is welcome – and I do mean that sincerely! – as we plan for the next year’s events, fundraising and spending.
