Starting School

Starting school is an exciting time for you and your child. We hope the information below will help in preparing you for this new chapter.

 

For children starting school in September 2026 we have planned four SCHOOL OPEN SESSIONS on the following dates:

 

Thursday 2nd October 2.00pm

Wednesday 15th October 9.00am

Wednesday 5th November 9.30am 

Thursday 6th November 2.30pm

 

There will be a tour of the school and an opportunity to talk to our Early Years Lead or Head of School. If you are unable to make any of these dates please contact the school office and we will try and arrange for you to visit at another time.

 

In the summer term prior to your child starting school there will be transition visits and a new starters meeting for parents. Further details of these events will be published later in the school year. These visits are invaluable in helping children settle quickly into school in September. 

 

If you would like further information please do not hesitate to contact the school office or email Mrs Joanne Taylor our Early Years Coordinator: enquiries@st-giles-matock.derbyshire.sch.uk
