Excitement is building ahead of Westholme School’s new state-of-the-art Prep School – and prospective parents are invited to attend a dedicated Prep School Open Afternoon on Wednesday 23 February 2022.
Parents will have the opportunity to learn more about Westholme’s pioneering plans for bringing all three of its educational sites together onto one campus from September 2022, just minutes from its existing Infant School.
Supporting Westholme’s vision for ‘One Family, One Site, One Westholme’, the move will enrich educational opportunities and enhance pupil access to the school’s impressive sporting, musical and educational facilities – including one of the largest school theatres in the country.
Dr Richard Robson, Principal at Westholme School, said: “This is a very exciting time to join the Westholme School family and parents are invited to learn more about our ambitious plans to create a seamless educational journey for pupils aged 4-18 years.
“Our purpose-built Prep School will be ready to visit from summer onwards but in the meantime, parents have the opportunity to discover what makes Westholme so special from staff and current pupils at Beardwood Bank, our current Infant and Junior School.
“Parents and prospective pupils will experience a flavour of the exceptional, creative and holistic educational activities Westholme has become known for, through a David Walliams themed afternoon of exploration.”
Children will be invited to take part in themed activities including origami and puppet crafts, journeys to the depths of the ‘jungliest jungle’ and a ‘Gansta Granny’ treasure hunt, whilst plans for the new Prep School are explained.
Dr Robson added: “With music and refreshments, and a ‘Chasm of Doom’ obstacle course, parents are invited to find out how Westholme provides such unrivalled holistic excellence, and our equal emphasis on academia, sport and the creative and performing arts.”
The David Walliams themed Prep School Open Afternoon will take place at Beardwood Bank on Preston New Road, Blackburn, between 2-5pm on Wednesday 23 February 2022. To register your interest visit www.westholmeschool.com/event/prep-school-open-afternoon/
