Year 6 Transition

It gives me great pleasure to welcome you into the Grace Academy Family, where we are passionate about our values:

• Intentional Excellence
• Amazing Grace
• Limitless Potential
• Mutual Respect
• Genuine Integrity

These values underpin everything that we do – we call it ‘The Grace Way.’ We want you to
understand how we do things around here, and why we do them in this way. We are incredibly
proud of our school, and you will be too! You will enjoy being at school with us here at Grace
Academy, even though sometimes learning is hard - it’s supposed to be! We are always willing to
listen, and your journey with us really does matter to us.

You may be excited and a little bit nervous about moving into a new school, which is to be
expected, but at Grace Academy you will be made to feel welcome and a part of our school
community very quickly. Our staff and your new teachers are looking forward to meeting you and
welcoming you into Grace Academy where you will be a proud member of our school.
In the spring term, our transition booklet will be sent to you, and this will provide you with an
introduction to your new school. Please take your time to read it and discuss the contents with
those you live with. If you have any questions at all, just ask us. We update our social media
regularly, on both Facebook and Twitter and we are always happy to help in any way we can with
any questions/worries.

This page will be updated throughout the year with key dates and information.
