Pre-Prep Reflections Week 4 September 2024
Dear parents,
The children are now well into the swing of the new term and making super progress with their learning. It has been a pleasure to hear some children read this week. We have also welcomed three new children into the Nursery class: George M, Alanna and Danny. We look forward to welcoming Olivia to the class next week.
Whole school photograph
On Tuesday morning, there was great excitement as five buses parked up on the playground to transport all pre-prep children and staff over to Exeter School for the first ever 3-18 whole school photo! There was much ooh-ing and aah-ing as the little ones arrived and took their places at the front. They were so brilliantly behaved and enjoyed the experience of seeing their siblings, old friends and generally waving to everyone! With around 1200 people and three dogs involved, this was no easy task to organise – our thanks go to Miss Rose and all the staff for ensuring that everything ran smoothly.

New Sixth Form Centre
You will no doubt have heard that the sixth form centre over at Exeter School has had a huge transformation over the summer – click through the photo gallery below to see for yourself. It’s lovely when we hear stories from the current sixth form pupils about what they remember of their time at the pre-prep back when it was the New School. I am looking forward to going along to the grand opening of the sixth form centre after school today to see it for myself. Exeter School’s open morning event is taking place next Saturday 5 October if you would like a tour. Please book below if you’d like to come along – why not share the link with friends too!

School uniform
Please may we remind parents to check that all uniform items, especially jumpers, are clearly labelled with your child’s name, so that we can return them easily. A few parents have also asked about the elasticated school ties. These are an optional uniform item and are only available to purchase through the school office at £6.75 each. Please contact AJ if you would like to order any and we will add the total amount to your next invoice.
Next week
Our annual grandparents’ afternoon is a lovely tradition which is always well attended. We look forward to hosting this again next Friday afternoon. Please see full details in the article below.
Wishing you all a very happy weekend.
