All students due to start Year 7 at OSA in September are invited to attend Summer School during the summer break, which will take place from Thursday 24th July to Friday 25th July 2025, from 9am-3pm.
The days will be made up of a range of fun activities for the students to take part in, from team building activities, treasure hunts, Computer Science, PE, fun maths, a movie morning and a BBQ and quiz. Our Summer School is free to attend and students DO NOT have to attend both days.
