SUMMER HOLIDAY HOMEWORK FOR YEAR 7 2023
Meet our Year 7 Students at Woolwich Polytechnic School for Boys!
The transition from primary to secondary school is a very exciting time for students and their parents/carers. We also understand that this can also be a daunting and anxious time where you will have many questions about your child and their future at our school.
Please enjoy this video that we have put together where students talk openly and honestly about their experiences so far at Woolwich Polytechnic School for Boys. For most of these students, this was a completely new experience, and we are delighted that they spoke with such confidence and that their sparkling personalities really shone through, we could not be prouder of them!
