The photographer will be in school on Friday, 21 November 2025 to take individual school photos.
The photographer will start at 8.30 am prompt, so please make sure your child is in school on time, in full uniform, looking smart, ready for their photo to be taken! If it is a PE day for your child, please bring their PE kit in separately to change into after their photo has been taken.
All pupils will have an individual photograph taken and a photograph taken with any siblings that also attend Priestley.
Please note, due to the increase in pupil numbers and time constraints, we will unfortunately NOT be able to take photographs with preschool siblings who do NOT attend Priestley.
