ENROLMENT FORMS
A reminder to please complete an Enrolment Form for your child by the end of April. You can access the electronic form on the transition website under the ‘Forms’ tab [ https://transition.helston.cornwall.sch.uk/ ]. Simply fill out the electronic form on a computer, then save and email it as an attachment to the secretary [ acann@helston.cornwall.sch.uk ]. If you are experiencing technical difficulties with the form, you can print it and fill it out by hand, then scan and email it as an attachment.
Alternatively, we can post a paper copy to your home address upon request, which will then need to be returned to the following postal address:

UNIFORM ORDERS
You will find the complete photographic uniform list on the ‘Order Uniform’ tab of the transition website [ https://transition.helston.cornwall.sch.uk/ ].
Here you will find links to purchase blazers with badges and ties from the online College Shop, and PE Kit online from the provider AGAME.
We appreciate that uniform can be a large financial outlay. If you are sourcing your own navy blue blazer, you can purchase the school badge only for £1.30 from our online College Shop. Similarly, for PE, students can alternatively wear navy tracksuit bottoms or navy leggings (but leggings must be worn with shorts or a skort) and a navy t-shirt and/or plain navy hoody.
We also have a small selection of preloved uniform available to purchase. To enquire about particular items, please email Mrs Macfarlane [ uniform@helston.cornwall.sch.uk ].
A reminder to please place a uniform order by the deadline of Wednesday 25th May 2022.
Orders can be collected from our North Site Reception from Tuesday 12 July until Friday 15 July 2022, between the hours of 8.00am and 4.00pm. Please check the school website or Facebook for updates on deliveries.
You also have the option to have PE orders delivered to your home address, direct from the company, or PE kit can be collected from the AGAME shop in Redruth [AGAME Sports Ltd, No 1 Stanley Way, Cardrew Business Park Redruth TR15 1SR | Tel: 01209 311 248].
PRIMARY VISITS
We will shortly be contacting our feeder primary schools to arrange a convenient time to visit the Year 6 children with our Year 7 Transition Mentors, and to have a handover with your child’s teacher.

Cookies set by the website owner or service provider (in this case, eSchools) are called “first party cookies”. Cookies set by parties other than the website owner are called “third party cookies”.
