Dear Parent/Carer
We would like to welcome you to our Year 6 Transition Welcome Evening on Tuesday 29th April 2025. At this event, you will have the opportunity to meet key staff involved in your child’s transition to St Robert of Newminster Catholic School & Sixth Form College.
It is important to note that you must bring in your child’s passport or birth certificate (original document not a photocopy please) with you as it is a legal requirement that we have sight of this document.
We have invited our school uniform providers (The School Outfit and Price & Buckland) to be available on the night for you to purchase items should you so wish. Items can also be purchased after the event using the company’s websites/outlets.
We will be giving further information on Transition days which are scheduled for 30th June, 1st July and 2nd July 2025 and Summer School 2025.
