Free open morning for prospective Reception students and their parents to explore The Abbey Junior School through interactive activities.
The Abbey Junior School is holding A Taste of Reception on Friday 27 November, a morning session for prospective Reception students and their parents to get a feel for the school. It runs from 9:15 am to 10:15 am at the school's Christchurch Road site in Reading, and it's free to attend.
The morning is built around interactive activities rather than a formal tour. The main draw is a set of Christmas food activities for the children to get stuck into, and there's time to meet the Reception team and ask questions while the little ones are occupied. It's designed as a low-pressure way to see how the school works from the inside, with the kids getting a hands-on taste of what a morning there looks like.
It's specifically aimed at families whose children will be joining Reception in September 2027, so it's one for those looking a bit further ahead. The Abbey is one of the country's foremost independent girls' schools from 3 to 18, with a Junior School and a Senior School and Sixth Form; the Junior School is led by Mrs Beccy Newton.
