Summary from the Year 6 into 7 Transition Evening for Parents

Dear Parents of Year 6 students,

I would like to thank all of the parents of our Year 6 students who joined me on the evening of Monday the 4th of October. I believe it was valuable to explain the process for transitioning from Year 6 into Year 7 and secondary as a whole, as well as discussing the varied opportunities for students in the secondary phase of DBIS.

During the meeting, I agreed to share several items with all of the parents of our Year 6 cohort. These were the pdf of the slides from the session, the DBIS Year 7-9 Curriculum Information booklet, and an exemplar of a Year 7 student timetable for reference. Please find links to each of these below.
