School assemblies are a chance for the whole school community to share information, celebrate achievements and make announcements. Assemblies are led by the school leaders and everyone is welcome to attend on school grounds at 3:00 pm on Fridays. At the start of each term, we come together for a whole school assembly instead of the Friday afternoon.
