Your First Day

The most important thing to remember is that Beaumont has a very strong feeling of community and we all look out for each other. You have made a fantastic decision to come to Beaumont and everybody that you will meet wants to make sure that you get the best education and make the most of all the wonderful opportunities that exist at Beaumont.

Right, so here’s your checklist

School bag

Remember that you don’t need one that is so big that you can fit in it yourself? It should be able to fit in your locker.

Think about whether you would be able to recognise your bag if someone else had the same one as you.

Equipment

Check in your booklet for the list of things that you need. There is a photo in there for you to look at.

Padlock

We recommend that if you want to use a school locker, that you purchase a small padlock with a key.  Combination locks will work but are not advised.

Key ring

You will receive your locker key hopefully in the first few days at Beaumont. Make sure you have a  decent key ring to keep your keys safe. Make sure you have a recognisable key fob attached to your key ring in case it is lost and handed in.

A mobile phone (optional, not required or expected)

If you choose to bring a phone with you make sure:

• It is inexpensive

• You will recognise it if it is handed in – others may have similar!

• It is switched firmly OFF at all times during the school day.  The rule on mobile phones at Beaumont is that they are never used, seen or heard whilst you are on site.

Uniform

Make sure you know what you should wear each day. If you’re not sure, click here!

Double check yourself BEFORE leaving for school in the morning.
