Virtual School Tour

We produced this virtual school tour, during Covid-19 closure, to support our Year 6 families in the weeks ahead as we continue our attention towards Transition. In advance of July’s Transition Days and Transition Evening, we are still determined to use all means we can to reduce any anxieties about moving up to secondary school. 

Our virtual school tour is on YouTube and has been optimised for viewing on mobile devices.
