My child has lost something ...

Please encourage your child to look for the item by re-tracing their steps. If they cannot find the item then please ask them to visit the Main Office to see if it has been handed in as Lost Property.

In our experience, items that are clearly named are normally returned to the student, via notification to their Form Tutor that the item has been found. It is therefore advised that all of your child’s uniform and property are clearly named.
