With the end of term fast approaching, and the countdown clock about to click past 50 days until opening, the pace of activity is building and building.

I have chosen floor colours, sofa fabrics and cupboard door handles, and the refurbishment programme remains on track. House Board designs are coming together, now that the students have named them. Over the summer the school signage will take on the Pinner green. This week I met with a core group who will form the Parents Association in September, and invite all parents to join them. We have numerous events planned through the first term, and I look forward to meeting as many families as possible.

Friday and Saturday of this week sees our first public theatre event. As a local school I am keen to host community events, and I am delighted to welcome Interrupt the Routine's award winning production of 'The Gin Chronicles' to Pinner High, before they head up to the Edinburgh Festival. There are still tickets available. Here is The Trailer, and some Audience Feedback from their recent London shows. You can book tickets: www.interrupttheroutine.co.uk

I look forward to bringing these sorts of opportunities to our students when they join us. We have our first school trip booked for September to the Hillingdon Outdoor Activity Centre, places available on the Nower Hill High School ski trip for our students, and parents already signing their children to instrumental music lessons through the Harrow Music Service.
