A record turnout of prospective parents and pupils attended the Open Evening at Prestatyn High School. Visitors came to the school to view the facilities and listen to the school’s vision, delivered by the Headteacher, Mr Neil Foley. Highlights from the evening included the Headteacher’s presentation and an explosive live demonstration from the Science Department. There were reading activities, sporting challenges, maths puzzles, jewellery and 3D printing in D&T, plus many more engaging activities within the subject areas. The Headteacher’s presentation concluded with a question and answer sessions from Year 7 & Head Team students. A treasure hunt helped pupils find out more about Prestatyn High School by answering questions about the school, subjects and departments.
Headteacher Neil Foley said:
“The attendance was superb and clearly showed the passion, appetite and commitment the Prestatyn community has for educational excellence. We are a great school with a proven track record, giving our pupils the very best life chances by achieving the very best results. We have unapologetically high standards in all we do and continuously strive to improve the school in every area.”
The feedback and support from parents was overwhelming and clearly indicated that Prestatyn High School is not only a possible choice, it is now their only choice for a first class education.
Head of Year 7 and Transition coordinator Kate Roberts said:
“Every transition year is important and I personally get to know each child, so they are known, nurtured and safe.”
Assistant Headteacher Gavin Turner said:
“Each year the we see an increase in parents selecting Prestatyn High School as their preferred secondary school option. This year was no exception with the numbers attending the Open Evening far exceeding previous years.”
