If you have any questions, please feel free to contact the Director of Music, Mr Mullaly (fxm@rgshw.com) . 26 Organisation of Forms In the Sixth Form, Form groups are organised around subject choices.

To ensure this can happen please provide an email address, via the Admission Form. 28 Parents' Association The Parents’ Association always welcomes new members. During the year, the PA organise a range of fun and entertaining social events for students and their families such as the Autumn Fair, Spring Fair, Family Quiz nights, Year 7/8 Disco, Coffee mornings, Theatre trips, Monthly Prize Draw and RGS's Got Talent.
