Week A

Year 5 Experience Day 10th July 2024

Year 5 Highdown Experience Day – Wednesday 10th July 2024

We are delighted to be able to invite you and your child to join in a unique two-part Highdown Experience Day.

On Wednesday 10th July, we will be open to students in Year 5 from 9am-1.45pm.

This is a unique opportunity for your child to gain an insight into secondary school life whilst also enjoying Highdown’s specialist facilities and the expertise of our talented teaching staff. Students will be sorted into groups with classmates from their primary school and take part in a varied timetable including three secondary school lessons. 

For the second part of the day, parents and carers are invited to join us at 1pm for a tour of the school and to see some of the lessons in action. This will also provide you with an opportunity to speak to members of Highdown staff and to get an early insight into life at Highdown. Please be aware that spaces are limited and so to avoid disappointment, please book early HERE.

Registration for the Year 5 Highdown Experience Day is essential and will close on Friday 28th June. Further details about the day will be emailed to all those who sign up using the form above.

In the meantime, if you have any queries, please contact Suzanne Hopes, Transition &  Marketing Lead:
