We welcomed the new P1s to our school for Transition Day!
We were so excited to welcome our newest friends from nursery to our school for Transition Day! It was a special day designed to help the little ones feel comfortable and happy as they get ready to start their school journey.
During the visit, the P1 children explored our classrooms, met their new teachers, and made new friends. They enjoyed fun activities like storytime, arts and crafts, and playing games together. It was wonderful to see their big smiles and hear their laughter!
Our older students helped by showing them around and sharing tips on how to have fun and learn at school. Transition Day is all about making new children feel welcome and confident, and we can’t wait to see them all again when they start officially.
Welcome to our school Kaiden and Arya!
