LUCKLEY HOUSE I have been so pleased to welcome pupils into a number of year groups this September, and of course in to Year 7 in particular. I am delighted to see our pupils settling into life at Luckley so quickly. Having our pupils back at school has really made the site come alive again and it’s a great treat to walk around the ground listening to them laugh and seeing them learn. At Luckley we are aware that coming to a new school is a big step for anyone, and so we work to ensure that pupils have a chance to get to know the school and each other even before they start term. I have asked our Year 7 how they found the first few weeks of term and this is what they had to say: “Life at Luckley is exciting to say the least. Every day is an adventure, with plenty to do. I settled in easily, as everyone is kind and very helpful. The teachers encouraged us to make friends, which caused us to have strong bonds between everyone. I have only been at Luckley for a couple weeks, and I already think of it as a second home. You could not feel more comfortable at this school if you tried!” Simi A, Year 7 38
“I’ve been really enjoying Year 7 at Luckley. At first, I was worried I might not make friends, but I made them really quickly and our trip to Oakwood Activity Centre really strengthened and created new bonds. I love walking around in the woods with my friends, lunchtimes in the library and jumping onto the zipwire. There are some wonderful subjects such as photography and classics, I never even knew those were lessons! I am having a wonderful time. Thank you.” Luke H-P, Year 7
