Welcome

A WELCOME MESSAGE FROM YOUR HEADTEACHER

A very warm welcome to Forest. I am thrilled that you are joining our family and I cannot wait to get to know you in the years to come.

I know that change can feel a little scary.  When I joined Forest 8 years ago, I stood exactly where you are now. I was leaving a comfortable place where I knew everyone, and while I was excited, I was also very nervous. But I can promise you this: that daunting feeling doesn't last. Very quickly you will make new friends, discover new favourite subjects, and find teachers who inspire you.

Moving to secondary school is about possibility. You are at the very start of a journey where you can choose who you want to become. I urge you to grab every opportunity, work hard, and try new things.  Be prompt, be prepared, be productive, be polite, and above all, be proud to be a member of our family. I am certainly proud that you are here.

Good luck,

ISW

Mr I Straw
