Grade 6

Our students transition to a number of secondary settings and we are in regular contact with these schools during their transition process to ensure a smooth transition.

Year 6 students will have the opportunity to visit their secondary school during Term 4 to familiarise themselves with the new environment, procedures and begin to build new relationships with secondary staff and their peers.  Information regarding this process will be provided to parents throughout the year.
