Sixth Form Update
Hello everyone!
So we are here again- the final week of term before the summer holidays and what a term it has been!
I think I can safely say that I hope never to experience another term like it. It’s been so strange not being in school every day seeing you all so it will be lovely to get back into school in September! Mr Roper will be sending out a letter to parents later in the week with more details about the return to school in September and you will also receive more information about results days (info below).
The main focus now is to make the most of the last week of term & to be as prepared as we can be for our return to school. And of course, to enjoy the summer holidays!!!
