Transition Days
Monday 29th and Tuesday 30th June 2026 are our Year 6/7 Transition Days. All pupils will be visiting on both days and will enjoy a 'taster' of life at St Edmund's.
On the first day, Monday 29th June, students will need to arrive via the Eagle Gate, which is located in Upper Arundel Street, by 8.20 am at the latest and they will be guided to the Hall for Registration and Assembly.
On the second day, Tuesday 30th June, students will need to arrive no later than 8.20 am via the Eagle Gate and will report directly to their Tutor room for Registration.
End of the day: On both days students will be dismissed at 2.50 pm and can be collected from the Eagle Gate. If a pupil is being collected by an older sibling who attends the school, they can be collected at 3.00 pm from the Eagle statue in the playground.
