We are delighted to be holding some open events and welcoming prospective parents to our school. These events are for parent/carers of children starting reception in September

As part of the events there will be a presentation on Lea Valley delivered by the Headteacher, Maria Dactylides, followed by a tour of the building. We encourage all parent/carers who are considering Lea Valley for their child to attend! This will be your chance to hear about the fantastic offer we have at Lea Valley, as well as answer any questions about admissions, early years, or life at the school.

The event is pitched towards adults, so please bear this in mind if you will be bringing young children.

Please note that although we will try to accommodate everybody who would like to come, space is limited. If you would like to attend you will need to register for an online ticket via Eventbrite.
