All welcome to Open Days

St Lawrence College is situated on the Broadstairs side of Ramsgate , just a short 10-minute walk from Ramsgate rail station . The school has been a proud part of the town ’ s heritage since it was founded in 1879 and generations of local families have been educated within its ivy-clad walls . As well as day pupils , St Lawrence welcomes boarding pupils from across the globe , providing a vibrant cosmopolitan environment .
If you are looking for a school place for your child for September 2017 , an Open Day is the ideal time to take a first look .
You can book a place at the Junior School Open Day on Friday 30th September 2016 for either the morning or afternoon session : 9.30am to 12pm or 1.30pm to 3pm . As well as having a full tour of the school , you will also meet the new Head of the Junior School , Ellen Rowe , and other members of staff and pupils . Refreshments will be available , and children and other family members are very welcome to accompany you .
If you are considering Year 7 and above , book a place at the Senior School Open Day on Saturday 1st October 2016 . The Open Day starts with signing-in from 10.30am followed by thorough tours of the school . The Principal , Antony Spencer , will give a speech before a buffet lunch is served for visitors . There will be plenty of opportunity to ask questions of staff and pupils . The Open Day will end at 2pm .
Often , the Open Day is just a taster and the start of the registration process . Families may then wish to arrange a time for a more personal visit , a meeting with the Head and
Registrar to discuss their individual child ’ s needs , and another look at any areas of particular interest , before a decision is made .
Book a place at Open Day to find out why more and more parents are choosing St Lawrence College for their child ’ s education .
