Year 5 Secondary School Experience

Our anual Secondary School Experience runs during the Easter holidays and is open to all children currently in Year 5. The event gives students a first-hand experience of what life in a secondary school is like.

With a wide range of  activities including Science and Maths Challenges, Drama and Music Workshops, Sports, Team Building and Art & Design, there's something for every child to enjoy.

Dates of our 2026 Year 5 Experience will be shared nearer the time.

"Amazing experience! He loved Art and Chemistry the most."

"I thought the three days were brilliant - the girls really enjoyed it and it’s given them a sense of calm about secondary school - they were previously nervous about the whole thing, and this gave them something to be excited about, so thank you!"

"Thank you so much! My son absolutely loved the experience, was nervous at first and the initial first day felt a bit overwhelming but it was such a wonderful opportunity to experience the range of activities, the number of children and the scale of a secondary school. Such a good experience for preparing them for moving onto secondary.

"Thank you, [my son] really enjoyed the two days experience and came home happy each day.  Will make the transition to Secondary School so much easier with such positive memories"

"It was superb and really appreciate all the staff and students taking time out of their Easter Holidays to give our year 5 kids the chance to experience a 'big school'. It was fabulous and they all bounced out saying it was BRILLIANT!"
