SENIOR SCHOOL OPEN MORNING 2024
Our next Senior School Open Morning is on Saturday, 21 September 2024.
When completing your online registration form for this event, families will be invited to choose a preferred arrival time, to help with spacing and parking. The first group, (Group 1), has an allocated arrival time of 8.30am, with the visit concluding with the Headmaster's Talk at 10.30am in the Sports Hall. The second group, (Group 2), has an allocated arrival time of 10.30am, with the visit concluding with the Headmaster's Talk at 12.30pm, also in the Sports Hall.
During the morning, families will be able to join a tour with a pupil, walk around the site, speak to knowledgeable and enthusiastic teachers and enjoy some delicious refreshments in our dining hall. If the weather looks to be inclement, please bring an umbrella, as some of the tour will be outside.
To register, please click on the button below:
Please note: Registered families will be emailed prior to the event date with a designated arrival group number (ie Group 1 or 2). Regrettably, if a group reaches capacity, subsequent registered families will be added to the remaining group. We ask that families keep to these arrival times wherever possible. Each Headmaster's Talk is expected to last approximately 30-40 minutes. Details of your preferred time of arrival will also be sent to you via an automated response, once the registration form has been completed. We ask that you keep this email on file for future reference.
After you have arrived on site, please make your way to the Wroughton Theatre to sign in.
