A great taster day for Year 5 families at Stepney Green!
17 families across the five primary schools spent a half day at Stepney Green to get a taste of secondary school. Mr Nzuza (English), Ms.Hewitt (Literacy) and Mr Giorano (P.E. ) delivered excellent family lessons. Well done to Rosie Scourti at Stepney Green for pulling things together.
Here is a selection of comments from parents and children:
Children
