The challenges and difficulties experienced by our students are extraordinary and there was little time to prepare them for the strange times we now face. We are in no doubt there will be many months to follow that will raise many questions and uncertainty for them.  

Students and parents are encouraged to reach out to anyone of us at School for support. Please don’t hesitate to contact us on any of the email addresses below:
