Key Dates for Transitioning to MGGS
Every year we are extremely excited to welcome another cohort of students to begin their own MGGS journey. We understand that moving from your primary school can be a stressful experience and so over the years, we have honed an established transition programme that aims to make this big and important shift from primary to secondary education as smooth and peaceful as possible. We plan lots of fun and exciting events in the build-up to starting with us so that you can begin to feel more at home in our buildings and get to know our staff and teachers. We hope that at these events you will also meet your new classmates and make new friends. These events include welcome evenings, taster days, workshops, quizzes, competitions, and our Marchants Hill activity weekend.
We hope that the videos give you a good understanding of MGGS, its ethos and the quality education we provide. You are encouraged to view these on our website with your daughter, prior to booking a tour, to get a full picture of what MGGS has to offer. Our student guide will be happy to answer further questions you may have.
We look forward to receiving your booking and welcoming you to MGGS.
Miss Deborah Stanley
Headteacher
