Welcome to Applegarth
We have created this dedicated section on the website and created a Reception Starters Induction Booklet to give you an overview of our Reception class.
We also filmed a transition video a year or two ago in order to give children a feel for our classrooms, the layout of the school and to meet our Reception teachers and support staff. This may change for the coming academic year, but you may like to watch it if you have not had the chance to visit in person yet.
I look forward to meeting with you all in person in the near future. If there is anything further we can do to help you, please fill in the contact form on the website.
Kind regards,
Mr J Peoples
Headteacher

We will introduce you to the team, give you the chance to explore (and play!) in the environment and answer any questions you might have. We are offering day time sessions so that you can see our school when pupils are on site. Our ambassadors will show you round for these sessions. This is for parents/carers and children. Please call the school office if you would like to attend.

Apply for Free School Meals
All children are eligible for free school meals if they’re in reception class; year 1; or year 2. We still ask that you apply using this form to prevent your child’s school missing out on additional funding which will benefit them for the rest of their primary education: https://fisportal.northyorks.gov.uk/Synergy/fsm_prereq.aspx
