Wednesday 3rd July saw us welcome 180 Year 6 primary school pupils who will be joining our Archbishop Blanch community in September.
The girls had a fun filled day meeting their form tutors,finding their way around school on an exciting treasure hunt, putting their hopes & dreams down on feathers and creating the "ABS Phoenix Wings", an afternoon of sport rounding off with a sing along of our community song. We are sure that new friendships have already been formed and all of the girls left us knowing that they are now part of the Archbishop Blanch community. We are looking forward to meeting them all again in September.
"Our two daughters have had the best start in life thanks to the caring, enthusiastic and hardworking staff of Archbishop Blanch School. Choosing the right secondary school for one's children is such a difficult task, but we could feel the special ethos of ABS on our first visit. You inspire your pupils to achieve the academic heights of which they are capable in a happy, safe and vibrant environment."
