CCHS Chat - entry Sept 2015.
I thought I would start a thread where parents of girls with places at CCHS can share info and chat.
Firstly, huge congratulations to you and your DDs!
Having received a huge envelope of essential information from CCHS today, I'm beginning to realise that the whole 11+ and admissions was only the start. So much to think about, so many decisions still to make

Re: CCHS Chat - entry Sept 2015.
Ours came today.
Bit annoyed that the taster days and welcome meetings are on monday/tuedays. As I work these days.
Guess I'm going to have to use annual leave to cover them.
Not sure DD will want to do the hockey days, but I might make her do at least one.

There certainly seem to be a lot of dates to fit in - DD's grandparents are going to be working overtime looking after little brother while we are CCHSing.
I'm not sure about the Hockey either, although hoping that DD can be persuaded to try the Netball or Athletics instead.

Was there info about atheletics and Netball in there too?
Must admit I only had a quick flit through it.

There is a page about hockey, a page about netball and athletics and another page with the permission slips on. The paper was pinkish for all three.

I think we are going to give all the p.e things a go as it gives the girls a chance to meet some of the girls that will be starting with them in September. To be honest I haven't told DD she has a choice as to whether to do them or not as I know she won't want to do the netball and hockey! At the moment I'm more worried about getting her swimming up to standard as she's never been a confident swimmer and also getting hold of two utility bills as we do everything 'paperless'

Plus, didnt we do this when we registered the girls for the exam, so they have had this information already.

Pinkrabbit - I have the same concerns on swimming and utility bills. I feel I have done this 3 times already!! And not to find the latest is gonna take a bit of time. It is exciting to read the letter and think about all the options.
My DD is not sporty but we will try hockey and netball I think. Athlete will be going a bit too far lol!
Need to book annual leave to cover the different meetings. Will be nice to meet the parents too.

Congratulations to all your dd's. My dd started last September and is loving it, she did all three of the sports and really enjoyed them and got to know lots of the other girls. With regards to the swimming, she has never been a strong swimmer, she was assessed and does improvers swimming with quite a few others. She really enjoys the lessons, just thought I'd share so you can relax a little xpinkrabbit38 wrote:I think we are going to give all the p.e things a go as it gives the girls a chance to meet some of the girls that will be starting with them in September.
