Rising Year 7s
http://www.aureusschool.org/984/school-lunches
Information about Y6 to Y7 transition will be sent to all parents and students who have been offered a school place in due course. If you have any questions, please get in touch via admissions@aureusschool.org
We know at Aureus that transition to Secondary school can be both an exciting, but nerve-wracking time, and we also know that choosing a Secondary school is a big decision.
We hope that we can make that move a little easier, which is why we host a number of events and make visits to local primary schools, so that we can get to know our Rising Year 7s before they get to us - sometimes years before!
Our main transition for Rising Year 7s includes a transition day, where you get to meet some of the key staff at Aureus - this includes Ms Rogers (Headteacher) and the Year 7 Pastoral Team (Miss Costar, Head of Year, and Mrs Fisher, Pastoral Welfare Leader), as well as some of your new classroom teachers. Alongside this, we welcome you and your parents to meet us separate from this and ask us any questions that will help you settle into your new school, here at Aureus.
We look forward to welcoming any new, and prospective students to our fantastic school!
Miss Costar
Head of Year 6 & 7
