Parent Forums
Our themed Parent Forums aim to help both Prep and College parents better understand what we do and why we do it. We explain our policies, and give parents the opportunity to ask questions and engage with our approaches. All parents are invited and each session is filmed so you can catch up on any sessions you are unable to attend in person. No booking required. Refreshments provided.
