We have a taster day for all Year 11's thinking of coming back into Sixth Form in July. This will be an opportunity for students to get a taste of Sixth Form life and of the subjects they will be studying. There will also be an assembly with the Sixth Form Team with lots of information about enrolment and Sixth Form in general. In the meantime, there is a PowerPoint attached that has some of the information including our uniform policy and expectations for students in Sixth Form. We look forward to meeting you all and getting to know you, we hope you are all enjoying your extended summer so far. Best Wishes *The Sixth Form Team* ### Welcome to Sixth Form Welcome to Sixth Form 272 KB [Open for printing](https://files.schudio.com/holy-family-catholic-high-school/files/documents/Welcome_to_Sixth_Form.pdf) ### Sixth Form Transition Pack Sixth Form Transition Pack -
