Welcome to the new Year 7’s
In July over one hundred excited Year 6 students came through the Woodlands Academy gates to spend their first day at their
new secondary school. The day was full of fun activities such as music, drama, science and technology.
The new students met their Learning Leaders, their tutor and other students in the House for the first time and made friends
with students from other primary schools whom they have never met.
Each student got to take home a keyring which they made in technology and they were presented with their House tie.
During the day the Year 6 students were assisted in all of the activities by Head Boys, prefects and the newly-trained Peer
Mentors who themselves were visiting the school for the first time just 12 months ago.
Dr Harris said “It was brilliant to see so many happy Year 6’s as I walked around the lessons during the day. It’s great that so
many students have chosen to come to Woodlands Academy and we are looking forward to seeing them in September”.
There are lots of photos from the Year 6 Induction Day on our website.
