New Starter & Admissions

Introducing your 4-year old to School

Our induction programme includes:

• Children visiting our school for Christmas entertainment.
• Starting school can be a stressful experience. To give the teacher the opportunity to get to know your child, arrangements are made to spend some time in school.  Children make visits with their playgroup during Activity Week in the summer term.
• “Getting Ready for School” - a meeting for parents to find out about the school and ask questions.
• Continuous support from staff in supporting your child in Literacy and Maths.
• Tapestry - online learning journey for parents to see what their child has been up to in school.  Daily and weekly observations are added to Tapestry. 

Our feeder preschools are Little Pickles, Newent Early Years and Whippersnappers.  We also visit other preschools in the area too.  The Reception staff do yearly visits to the preschools to meet the children and join in with their daily activities.

If you are a new parent thinking of sending your child to our school please contact the school - we are hoping to return to school tours after restrictions are eased on the 21st June 2021.
