The move from the Red Room to the Yellow Room is an exciting one for our boys and girls – and one that we prepare them for carefully. After all, they now feel as if they are joining the ‘big children’ – they get to come into school via the main entrance and head up the stairs for the first time to enjoy life in a more formal classroom environment.
This feeling is reinforced in other ways too. They are given a voice on the school council, they start swimming lessons at Golden Lane, and they are encouraged to take extra pride in their work – earning ‘presentation points’ for their efforts.
They are also made to feel particularly special in their first term by preparing for and performing in the school nativity at the Christmas Carol Service. It is an experience that places them right at the heart of the school, and it is one that they tend to remember for years afterwards.
