Open Days & Events

We hold Open Day events for each of the main entry points of the school. However, every day is an open day at Birkdale.

If you wish to visit the school at any other time please do not hesitate to contact us and we will be happy to arrange a personal tour of the school. These all provide an excellent opportunity to see what life at Birkdale is really like.

Our next events are as follows:

Year 5 Taster Day

Wednesday 21st or Thursday 22nd May 2025, 9.30am – 3.00pm

We will be running Senior School Taster days for all Year 5 children. The days will be focussed around a series of fun and educational activities.

The day will run from 9.30am to 3pm and children will take part in Science, Art, Design & Technology, Geography and English lessons followed by an afternoon experiencing fun activities outside the classroom with our Head of Outdoor Pursuits. Our aim is to give every child attending the opportunity to experience what life is like at Birkdale Senior School, to help support your decision about the next steps.

There will be morning break and lunchtime with the opportunity to socialise with members from all groups. Lunch and all refreshments will be provided: there is a wide choice of options to suit most tastes and dietary requirements.

At the end of the day refreshments for parents are provided and members of staff on hand to answer any questions you may have.

We would be delighted if your child could join us.
