Welcome to Year 9
Dear Parents / Guardians,
I would like to welcome you and your daughter to Year 9 at Presdales School. It is my privilege to be the Head of Year of such a promising cohort of students.
This is a very exciting and important year for your daughter as she will be starting to learn material for her GCSE’s in subjects such as Science, and will be choosing the other subjects she wishes to study in Year 10 and 11. It is vital that your daughter thinks carefully about these choices and the Year 9 pastoral team will be on hand to help guide her. As workload and quantity of homework increases it is important that your daughter focuses on her studies and tries her best in all lessons. I would also encourage your daughter to enjoy the variety of extra-curricular clubs and events available to her, including the opportunity to visit Germany. The Year 9 pastoral team is shown below. 9AL Miss A Lee – AL@presdales.herts.sch.uk 9FJ Mrs F Jefferies – JefferiesF@presdales.herts.sch.uk 9KM Miss K McCallum – McCallumK@presdales.herts.sch.uk 9ME Ms M Evans (Mon, Tues, Thurs, Fri) / Mrs L Dyson (Weds) – EvansM@presdales.herts.sch.uk / dysonl@presdales.herts.sch.uk 9NW Ms E Awad (Mon, Thurs) / Mrs K Liddiard (Tues, Weds, Fri) – awade@presdales.herts.sch.uk / liddiardk@presdales.herts.sch.uk – (Mrs N White – WhiteN@presdales.herts.sch.uk – Maternity leave) 9TC Mrs T Carr (Weds, Thurs, Fri) / Mrs L Smith (Mon, Tues) – CarrT@presdales.herts.sch.uk / SmithLa@presdales.herts.sch.uk As a team we are very much looking forward to supporting your daughter during this next step in her school journey.
