Transition 2022/23
Year 6 Transition 2022-2023
Transitioning from primary to high school is a time full of fun, excitement and new experiences, but it can also be challenging or worrying for many students and their families. Norwood Primary School are fortunate to be able to collaborate with local high schools in order to make this process a smooth one. Our local schools are aiming to assist students and their families by making sure every child is prepared and feels supported in their choice for high school learning in 2023.
Coming up this Term we have further experiences available for those students who will be attending Queechy High School and Kings Meadows High School, plus those students who are still unsure. The purpose of both of these experiences is to increase students connectedness to their Year 7 high school, whilst fostering engagement through introductory experiences.
KMHS Challenge Day Thursday 25th August
Year 6 students will experience a sample of the teaching and learning programs, view the facilities and meet the staff while in the care of their Primary School teachers and TA’s. Experiencing social success will:
- assist students in the transition to Year 7;
- support students to understand the routines and school organisation; and
- provide students with an introductory experience of curriculum
QHS
There will be a follow up session held in week 6-8 designed to increase student familiarity with the school and a further opportunity to meet peers and teachers.
There will be more information to come around both of these sessions.
