This event takes place the day before term starts and is an opportunity for the Headmaster to officially welcome new pupils into the School.
Following his address, families have the opportunity to join their child within their house before lunch.
For boarding families there is also further time allowed during the day to help their child unpack and settle them into their new house.
Beyond these more formal occasions there are also plenty of opportunities for families to become more acquainted with Bede’s. Once your child’s house is confirmed, you are of course welcome to speak with your child’s Housemaster or Housemistress or email them with queries or further information you feel is relevant.
If your child is entering the Fifth or Sixth Form and has therefore not spent a day with us as First Year pupils do in the form of a Bede’s Experience Day, you may wish to discuss with the Admissions Team the option of a taster day on which they can join lessons and perhaps participate in an activity of interest.
