Upper 3, Lower 4 and Lower 6 should register in the Main School Hall at 8.40am where buses will be coordinated. Upper 4 and Lower 5 should register in their form room as normal and then go to the Main School Hall at 9.00am.
Girls can either be picked up from the Arena at 3.30pm or will be taken back to school on a school minibus. Please note that the car park becomes congested for parents collecting students from the Arena.
Wednesday 3rd July
House Music Videos are being filmed. Girls should bring in music video costumes.
Thursday 4th July
The Mock Election will take place in the morning.
At 1.00pm students will travel to Sandy Park by bus for the Summer Celebration from 2.00pm to 3.30pm. They will need to be in full school uniform.
Students travelling back to school will leave first and return via the minibuses. Students being collected from the car park will be escorted to the Exeter Chiefs Gates by their tutors. Parents should please remain seated until asked to sign out your daughter – staff will be on each of the exits to do this. Please note that the Sandy Park car park becomes very congested and a staggered departure is recommended.
