Prescott House is joining the Junior School Campus<\/span><\/b><\/span>\u00a0<\/span><\/span><\/p>\n

You will have received communication this week<\/a> that Prescott House is joining the Junior School Campus in 2025. We have already received communication from some families who are willing to join Prescott next year. Below are some questions and answers for any other families who are considering this option.<\/span><\/span>\u00a0<\/span><\/span><\/p>\n

Q: If my child joins Prescott in Year 5, will she be in Prescott in Year 6?
\n<\/span><\/span><\/strong>A: Year 5 Prescott students will join either Prescott or sister House, Wade, in Year 6.<\/span><\/span><\/p>\n

Q: If I have a daughter in Senior School who is in a different House to my daughter in Junior School, will they be in the same House when my youngest daughter is in Year 6?
\n<\/span><\/span><\/strong>A: Yes. We always keep siblings in the same House from Kindergarten to Year 5 and from Year 6 to Year 12. This is regardless of the new \u00a0\u2018Sister House\u2019 structure for Year 6 to Year 12.<\/p>\n
