We are delighted to welcome our new children and their families to the West Hill Primary Academy community.

This page has been especially added to provide you with information at this difficult time, and to help you to connect to West Hill and the next step in your child’s learning journey. Please take time to look at the documents already posted and check back regularly, as we will continue to update during the next few weeks in order to connect and build relationships. Some of the material will be for adults, but others are for the children, so please refer to these frequently over the coming weeks to familiarise your child and support their transition.

The Early Years team are looking forward to meeting you all and will work hard to support you and your child through this difficult transition period. We understand that starting school is a big step in the family’s life and this year is even more so, because of the impact and barriers created by COVID-19. We are aware that you, as parents and carers, find this an anxious time and would like to reassure you that this is normal. We will do everything we can to lessen the anxiety and ensure your child settles in to West Hill with ease. Every child is different and will arrive with different experiences. We recognise this and will work to settle your child based on their individual need.

If you have any questions or queries please do email Pennie.Hills@galaxytrust.co.uk .
