What a buzz we had on Thursday 11th July as all of our new Year 7’s entered KWS ready to meet their new form tutors and classmates. After a Headteacher’s welcome assembly they all went into their form bases for the day to get to know each other and go through our KWS expectations as they embark on this schooling chapter.

In between taster lessons including KS3 Science lab experiments, Spanish lessons and more, students were presented with literacy and numeracy literature to go over in their summer holidays.

A big thank you to the PE department led by Mr Alexander who orchestrated a lunch time event for all the new starters where they chose between various PE activities which proved a big hit as always.

Feedback included many compliments to the catering company who served delicious meals including all dietary requirements. All students with allergies/intolerances were taken to meet our kitchen staff, reassured that their needs will also be included into the daily menu.

Some parents were also keen to let me know how happy their child was after initial nerves and that they are now joining onto our beneficial Summer School programme in August for new Year 7’s.

Thank you to all staff involved,
Miss Annie
