Dear Parent/Carer

It has been so lovely to meet some of the Year 6’s this week. We will be continuing to visit the primary schools over the next month, please see dates below.

Just a reminder, we will be having a parents’ questions and answers session after school on these visit days (Hartland and Bradworthy as your visits are via Zoom please email or phone if you have any questions).

If your child does not attend one of the local schools above, we would like to invite them to Budehaven on Thursday 10^th June. Please arrive at the Haven (Valley Road side) at 1.30pm.

We will soon be creating form groups. Please can we ask that your child completes this link: https://bit.ly/year6questionnaire to select their friendship choices and tell us a little bit about their hobbies and interests. We will endeavour to place your child with at least one of their two friendship choices. Please remember that not all lessons are taught in form groups, so they will be mixing with lots of children from their old primary schools as well as making lots of new friends. Please can these be completed by Friday 18^th June.

Also, please can we ask you to complete the online data and medical form if you have not done so already:
