Year 8 Parent Information

Welcome to Year 8

Having already laid the foundations in Year 7, our students are now moving into an exciting stage of their journey. Year 8 means they are no longer the youngest in the school and they will be stepping up to inspire and welcome our new year 7s whilst pushing forward on their own journey of discovery and keeping that learning momentum going.

Whether it be in the classroom, or at home, we want to celebrate every success with you and keep our students positive, resilient, and well-motivated. 

We expect each and every student to be the best that they can be every day, making the most of all that Woolmer Hill has to offer. We strive to maintain excellent relationships with parents and keep communication as open as possible. Your support is very much appreciated and we will continue to work as a supportive team together to ensure your child can work at their very best.

Please don’t hesitate to contact us if you have any questions or concerns.

Miss Laughlin

Head of Year 8
