Hospitality Training

The Transition boys were working hard on their hospitality skills this week. The boys were Effective Contributors when setting tables and ironing items. As part of their SQA course the boys have to prove that they can follow instructions, they practiced this by following table settings to check our Burn’s supper layout was correct. The boys also have to carry out tasks that would be included in the hospitality industry. The boys proved they can handle an iron safely before ironing items with the hot iron. Maximum effort by all!

Community travel

The Transition boys were Responsible Citizens this week when half of them travelled on the bus checking the bus times and then using their passes when they got on the bus. The rest of the boys walked into town using the crossing and looking for traffic before crossing the road, when they saw the bus pass they waved to their friends. The boys went to the shops where they purchased toiletries then had their snack before returning to school.

Planning for Burns’ Night

It might have been the first day back but the Transition boys were Effective Contributors when they launched straight into planning for the next event, the School’s Burns’ Supper. The boys worked through a presentation which told them what a Burns’ Supper was and what they needed to include in their plans. The boys then selected different planning jobs as part of their SQA work experience.

SQA Work Experience

The Transition boys were Effective Contributors to school life when they used their Work Experience skills. It might have been Christmas time but The Grinch (Mr Nicoll) put the boys to work to help take down the Christmas decorations and generally tidy the school. The boys listened to multi step instructions and followed them. They also focussed well on their tasks and completed all that was asked. Well done!
