Year 6 Croxley Danes School Student Guide 2024

Message from your Head of Year

Hello future Year 7s,

My name is Miss Brun Orejas and I look forward to welcoming you to Croxley Danes School in September. When I am not busy being your Head of Year, you will find me teaching languages. I might even get the pleasure of teaching you in your first year!

Starting Secondary school can be a daunting experience, but I hope this guide will go some way to reassuring you that you are not alone in your fears.

Inside this guide you will find answers to some of your questions and some summer work for you to complete to help prepare you for the new academic year.

Please spend some time reading through this and if you have any further questions, please do not hesitate to contact me at CDSyear6transition@croxleydanes.herts.sch.uk

I look forward to working with you over the next year. 

Miss Brun Orejas

Head of Year 7 and Transition
