The final group of P7 pupils visited Mrs Houston in the Hospitality Department at Dalbeattie High school today. The groups have all made carrot cake muffins and had their first real experiences of a secondary class and what the expectations will be in secondary school. We look forward to further transition events throughout the year linking in with different curricular areas and departments.

Our third group of P7 pupils visited the Hospitality Department at Dalbeattie High School today as part of our on going transition work. Well done P7.

Primary 7 pupils have started some transition work with the Home Economics Department at Dalbeattie High school. Pupils have been attending the High School on a Tuesday afternoon in small groups along with peers from our cluster schools. The children have been working with Mrs Houston during these visits to make carrot cake muffins. During the visits, the children are also experiencing what it is like to be in a secondary class/school environment and the expectations of the Home Economics Department. Thank you to Mrs Houston for supporting us with this transition work. We are hoping to visit the department again later on in the school session.
