Primary School Transition Visits

Monday, April 15, 2024

In order to make the transition to high school as stress free as possible, our local primary schools bring their students to workshops at Dyson Perrins. Pupils from Reception to Year 6 participate in sessions which support primary curriculums whilst allowing them to experience a high school environment.

In Music pupils look at the layout of the keyboard, learn what the different notes are called and how to find them.  They then learn to play a piece of music (Happy Birthday) and students have the opportunity to perform what they have learnt if they choose to. Computing workshops give students the opportunity to create animations whilst in Art they create clay hanging decorations in our pottery room and black and white optical illusion art; patterns which 'move' because of how they are arranged. Our PE department run multi sports sessions and sports festivals with the help of our KS3 Student Sports Leaders. We also run workshops in Science, Drama, MFL and Technology.

We receive lots of really positive feedback from staff and students whenever they attend and the students are always thoroughly engaged and achieve well.

Recently we have welcomed students from Suckley School, Madresfield CE Primary, Northleigh C of E Primary, St Joseph's Catholic Primary School, Leigh and Bransford Primary School, Kempsey Primary School, Hanley Swan Primary School, Wyche C of E Primary, Great Malvern Primary, Broadheath C of E Primary School, Castlemorton CE Primary School.
