Pembrokeshire County Council - Road Safety Officer Transition Booklet For Year 6 Pupils - To Use When Thinking Of Travelling To Their New Secondary School In September.

Transition Council

We were delighted to welcome year 6 representatives from our feeder primary schools recently. They met with current year 7 pupils to discuss their experiences of moving from primary to secondary school.

Year 6 pupils were able to ask questions to help them find out about Ysgol Harri Tudur/ Henry Tudor School and what they can expect from the transition opportunities. They also had the chance to discuss what they would like to see offered to ensure that they settle quickly into their new school.

Quotes from Y6

"It was good to hear other people's opinions."

"The thing I liked about the first transition council meeting was we got to know more about what goes on and being prepared."

"We found out a lot of information about the school."

"It was good for the Year 7s to get used to talking to the younger people joining soon."

"It's been good as we can help improve Welcome Day."

Year 7 pupils were very keen to be part of the process to pass on what they felt had been successful and to help improve transition for the next intake of pupils.

Quotes from Year 7

"We can help with people getting used to the school and how it works"

"Today was good because Year 6 had questions and we could help"

“You said…….we did”

We have been able to act on some of the suggestions already:

  1. We are worried about where to sit in the refectory…… We are trialling having 4 large tables which are reserved for year 7 only.
  2. We would like to spend more time in Ysgol Harri Tudur….. We are already planning a Harry Potter Science event and in the summer term there will be a new Health and Wellbeing transition day.
  3. We would like to do more, shorter lessons on Welcome Day….. We are looking at the arrangements to try to make this happen.
  4. Can we ask more questions to help us feel prepared ?…… Mrs Martin will be sending cards to each primary school to enable year 6 pupils to send in a question which will be answered by our year 7 pupils.

The Friends of Ysgol Harri Tudur/Henry Tudor School have been selected by Co-op as a recipient of their charitable Local Community Fund initiative. This is similar to that run by Tesco with their community fund, where we received £1500 to assist with the breakfast club. The Co-op fund works slightly differently; you need to be a Co-op member (£1) and download their app; if you then select the Community tab you can see the causes - select The Friends of the School. Monies raised will help continue the breakfast club into 2025. The notification message from Co-op is repeated below. Congratulations! The Friends of Ysgol Harri Tudur/Henry Tudor School has been chosen to be part of the next round of the Co-op Local Community Fund (Cause ID: 87323) The funding round will start on Sunday 20 October 2024 and will run for 12 months until 19 October 2025. During this time, Co-op Members will be able to choose you as their cause, the more members who choose you, the more money you’ll receive. The Co-op invests profits back into communities. By becoming a member you can choose a cause; the total amount each cause receives depends upon how many members have chosen them. As such, please sign up and select The Friends of Ysgol Harri Tudur/Henry Tudor School as your cause!  Read More…
