Year 7 EXPO

On Wednesday 3 March, the Year 7 Expo was held at St Albans Secondary College. A large turnout of students with their families (over 300) were welcomed by the Junior Sub School Leader Mrs Lauren Honeycombe and college principal Ms Kerrie Dowsley.

Families attended rooms and met a number of their child’s teachers and have a look at some of the work that has been done by students so far this year. It was a very successful evening.
