School term dates for next year

The last day of school this year is Wednesday 14th Dec.

The start date for 2017 is Tuesday 31st January.

The first day back after a break from school can be both exciting and sometimes a little over whelming for students.

We have found that the transition back to school works better if students are part of processes such as; introductions and getting familiar with new teachers/students/work spaces, understanding of new expectations, timetables and routines, as well as settling back in with friends.

This can be the case for the start of a new year, term, week, or even a day, as many students find it difficult to 'catch up' and find their place after everyone else has settled in.

When possible please book holiday travels outside of school term times.
