Transition Day Letter 2025 and Booklet

Please see below the letter sent to parents/carers on Tuesday 20th May 2025. As per the letter, Mrs Dadson will be handing out transition 'All About Me Booklets' during her visits to primary schools after May half term. We ask students to complete these booklets and bring with them on transition day to help their new tutors get to know them a little better in preparation for September.

 

Please wait for your son/daughter to bring one home however if this happens to get 'lost' at the bottom of a school bag or you live outside the BCP area please find a copy below. A paper copy can also be collected from our Avonbourne Academy receptions.
