To see the inclusive and fun Willow school in action, you are most welcome to come along to a school tour. In November 2022 we held our Information Morning - find out more here:
Information Morning presentation (10 November 2022)
We have an information morning on Thursday 9 November 2023 from 8.55am until 11.35am (nearly 3 hours so for adults only) which includes tours of the school site by Year 5 children aged 9 years old. At this information meeting, you will meet Ms Ferdinand the headteacher, Rob our main Reception lead/teacher, and Umarani Nathan who looks after the pastoral care of the children (and you), on the journey in school. Please book onto this important one off event. Email Umarani Nathan at parents@thewillow.haringey.sch.uk. as this event will not be repeated.
In addition, we will resume (in October), 15min tours of the reception areas (playground, classrooms, eating spaces) aimed just for children (with their adults). These should start October 2023 and will run approx weekly until January 2024 - they are led by Umarani Nathan (Uma).
Please book your spaces by emailing Umarani (Uma) Nathan at parents@thewillow.haringey.sch.uk.
We also have virtual tours of the school here: Tour of the school
