Another Busy Year 6 Induction Day |
| Posted by Scott Pinner (scottpinner) on Jul 07 2009 |
Over 240 Year 6 students attended John Kyrle for their induction day this week. The aim of the day is to familiarise the students with their new surroundings, tutors and teachers before the new school year in September. The day involves a range of taster lessons, quizzes, a question and answer session with current Year 7 students and a free introductory meal in the school canteen.
Induction day is always a busy day at John Kyrle, but this year it was busier than usual. Following on from last year’s record numbers, the school’s intake this year is even greater and students will be joining John Kyrle from a huge number of partner schools, including many students from outside the school’s traditional catchment.
Head of Year, Trixie Williams, said that she was impressed with the school’s new cohort and it was a real credit to the work the primary partner schools carry out. She went on to say she was looking forwards to a superb start in September and working together with the students and their parents.
Headteacher, Nigel Griffiths, went on to say, “It was fantastic to see so many enthusiastic students ready to join us in September. Our primary school partners continue their excellent work getting students ready for the transition to John Kyrle. We are, once again, very popular and this reflects the continued success of the school based upon the hard work and commitment of the students, staff and governors.”
