Reception new starters - September 2021
WELCOME TO HIGHFIELD ST. MATTHEW’S C.E. PRIMARY SCHOOL
A very big welcome to all our new children, parents & carers who will be joining Highfield St. Matthew's CE Primary School in September and also our Highfield family too!
Normally, we hold an Induction Evening in school during the summer term for our children starting Reception classes in the September. However, due to the on-going Covid pandemic and current restrictions in place, we are unable to do so.
Parents and Carers should have already received a welcome pack with lots of information and a range of forms to complete. If you haven't already received this pack please contact the School Office on 01942 747818 and we can assist you.
Please find below lots of information which will hopefully answer any questions you may have. We hope that you will take the opportunity to view the rest of our school website and our virtual tour of our Nursery and Reception. https://www.highfieldsaintmatthews.wigan.sch.uk/
Before the end of term, we will contact Parents and Carers again with further information regarding your child's new teacher and starting arrangements.
