Experience Days

In our efforts to make your child's introduction to St Martin's School, and the general secondary school experience, as positive as possible, we offer a number of experience days for Year 5 and Year 6 pupils.

Primary Enrichment Days

These 'whole day' experiences bring Year 5 pupils, accompanied by their current teachers, from our valued feeder primary schools to engage with our school across a series of exciting challenges.

Year 6 Taster Days

In the summer prior to joining us, Year 6 students have the opportunity to meet St Martin's School staff and students, tour the school and participate in secondary school learning experiences, which help us to identify any specific needs and aspirations before the students' officials arrival in September.
