Transition Timeline for Year 6 Students/Families

PLHS is looking forward to welcoming another cohort of Year 7 students to our school community in 2023 (our 100th year!) – accordingly, we have established the following timeline of events to make the transition process from primary school to high school as seamless and stress-free as possible for the current Year 6’s and their families.

As always, please don’t hesitate to contact PLHS on 8683-6000 with any queries or concerns; alternatively, please email our Middle School Assistant Principal Mr. Craig Curtis at Craig.Curtis549@schools.sa.edu.au.
