Letters 2020-2021
At Smithdon High School, we value regular communication with our community, especially our parents. As such, we send regular updates and information via both text messages and letters (usually emailed to parents, rather than sent via Royal Mail).
On this page, you will find any letter that has been sent to parents recently – organised by those sent to all year groups (the whole school) or just specific year groups – along with any linked material sent at the same time.
