Coffee and cake night
Thursday 25th June 2020 5pm – 6pm
On this evening parents will receive their transition pack. This pack has all vital information regarding the transition process. Attendance to this evening is compulsory, enabling all parents to complete all relevant documentation prior to starting. Mr James will go through the pack in detail and be able to answer any queries or questions parents may have. Tours of the school building are available on this evening to familiarise students further.
Year 6 transition days
Wednesday 1st July 2020 & Thursday 2nd July 2020
Year 6 students will spend two days at NUSA taking part in a range of fun and exciting activities designed to help them get to know NUSA. We ask that they arrive at school at 9am each morning and students may leave at 3pm. Students should bring with them their pencil case and PE kit ready to participate in a range of fun lessons.
Meet the Tutor night
Thursday 9th July 2020 – 6pm
This is an opportunity for you and your child to meet with their tutor, Head of Year and Assistant Head of Year. This will be completed in small groups and gives your child a great opportunity to familiarise themselves with their tutor, who will be their first port of call for any support.
The NUSA Five afternoon
All year 5 classes of our 5 main feeder primary schools; Portland, Firbeck, Djanogly, Melbury and Brocklewood will have the opportunity to visit NUSA in the summer term for an afternoon. They will participate in some fun science and technology lessons in order to inspire them to make NUSA their number 1 choice next year.
If your child does not attend one of our 5 main feeder schools or you are unable to make these events, please contact Mr James on 0115 929 1492 or lujames@nusa.org.uk , to arrange a private appointment at a time convenient to you.
