Many thanks to everyone who has registered interest in attending Saturday Study. All emails / messages were received and all of those students are invited to attend Saturday study tomorrow, 27th January at 10am.

Please note the following carefully:

  • entrance to the school will be via the small staff door on the Daybreak/convent side of the school only. No other door will be open.
  • the door will only be opened at 10 so please do not arrive too early.
  • the door will be locked shortly after 10am so please do not arrive late.
  • study is in silence - any disruption will not be tolerated. This facility has been respected for many years by the students who have attended. If you think you will not be able to study in silence for the 3 hours then perhaps this setting is not for you.
  • there is normally a short break half way through.
  • study ends at 1pm and if you attend you are expected to stay the full time.

I hope that those who attend will find it beneficial. 

Please keep an eye on the app for future notification of when Saturday study is on.
