Primary 7 Transitions, May/June 2023
Helping your pupils embrace the changes and challenges of 'big school'
Description
Our Primary 7 workshop will help give your pupils tools to embrace the changes and challenges that await them in the next move in their school journey.
This is a fun, interactive and very practical workshop where we will focus on helping equip your pupils to meet the new scenarios that ‘big school’ will provide.
The overall aim of the ‘HIP Transitions Workshop’ is to have pupils viewing the move to post-primary through the lens of excitement, not the lens of worry.
There will also be two options available for this workshop. An in-school face-to-face visit. Or an online megathon extravaganza option, which will be a lower rate of cost. The dates for this version are:
Friday 2nd June, 09.30-10.45,
Monday 12th June, 1.30-2.45
Wednesday 14th June, 09.30-10.45, 11.15-12.30
The Transitions Workshop Will Focus On The Following Four Areas
Mapping The Week
The pupils will work through a standard post-primary timetable. This will allow the children the opportunity to practice reading ‘the map of their week’.
Work The Clock
We will help your pupils create a ‘big school’ routine, starting from bed time to first bell and everything in between.
What If….? Then I:
We will discuss new scenarios that may occur in a post-primary school setting and what a good response to these will look like.
Building Friendships
We teach pupils the important skill of active listening. This is a key component in developing emotional intelligence, empathy and fostering relationships with others.

To emphasise key messages and embed our core teachings, we will incorporate the following within our ‘Transitions Workshop’
- Real-life post-primary scenario based discussions
- Powerful videos
- A fun quiz

The workshop focuses on developing the following core skills:
