Open day event 13th November 2021 and Virtual Tour of the School
Welcome to The Richard Clarke First School
-
We are now holding an Open Day event on Saturday 13th November 2021 in the morning to welcome all new prospective families in, to have a look around our wonderful school. Please telephone the school office to book a slot for your tour. Choosing your child’s first school is an important decision and there is no better way to get a feel for the ethos of a school, than by going in to have a first hand tour. In the meantime we would like you to have a look at all the videos below to help you meet staff, children and parents and get a feel for our school. Please also look around the website to find out more. We hope this will help you decide to choose us for your child’s education. I know I’m biased, but I think we’re pretty special! Feel free to give the school a ring if you have any questions or would like to make an appointment for an individual tour after the school day and/or have a socially distanced, informal chat if you can’t make the open day event. We look forward to welcoming you.
Mrs Kay Hanson, Headteacher

‘We were concerned reception would be such a big jump from the nursery experience, however he has settled in so well, like a duck to water, it’s a pleasure to drop him off everyday and see the lovely welcoming environment. The reception class and dedicated playground space is so perfect for their transition to school.’ New Reception parent
