Year 5 and 6 Open Evening

Posted: 26 September 2018

Tavistock College invites you to their Open Evening, 27/09/2018 1730-1930 for years 5 and 6 students.

College Uniform

Posted: 31 August 2018

Dear Parents,

We have been informed that there have been some issues obtaining the college skirts for the start of term.

We have been in contact with school trends who are sorting out the supply issue as well as Lawsons who, we are aware have more stock in order to arrive soon.
Due to this unforeseen issue with obtaining the college skirts, can we take this opportunity to state the the new effective start date for the college skirt will be later than planned for parents to source the new skirt.

Therefore October half term will be the new date that we would like to work with parents on. In the meantime trousers or of course skirts that are the appropriate style and length may be worn. If there are any individual issues surrounding this please do not hesitate to get in touch.

Many thanks
Tristan Forster
Assistant principal

Term will end at 13:55pm on FRIDAY 20 JULY for all students. The timings of this last day will vary slightly to the norm:

  • P1 9:05-10:05am
  • P2 10:05-11:05am (At the start of P2, pupils going to funeral go to the gym to prepare for a 10:45am departure.)

In memory of Hannah Bragg pupils may wear purple or other bright colours on the last day of term, 20th July, as requested by the Bragg family.

Hannah’s funeral will also be taking place on the 20th July and students who wish to attend will need to return their permission slips, from the recent letter to parents, by FRIDAY 13th JULY at the latest. These students will sign out at 10:45am (see above) and remain off site thereafter.

Hannah’s funeral will take place at St Eustachius Church in Tavistock with the service commencing at approximately 12:00pm.   Her wake will be held on college premises, but is a private family function.
