the College is offering additional places in Year 3, offering boys a unique opportunity to join the Aquinas College Junior School community a year ahead of usual intake. Due to increased demand for placements, the availability of resources and key teaching staff, Aquinas College is able to offer an additional classroom for Year 3 students next year.
