Transitions

This week we will discuss the transitions each and every student experiences yearly and how it affects them.

Transitions to different school years may put plenty of stress and other negative emotions on a child, and we as a school are aware of how unhealthy stress can be to an individual. As a student progresses to their next class, meets their new teacher, and is surrounded with new peers, they may be pressured by unrecognisable feelings that could prevent them from fulfilling their complete potential. Bushmead Primary School desires for our children to be at their prime mentality for their age before their departure from primary school to high school, but of course the idea of a transition may lay doubts upon a student.

We have spoken to Key Stage 1s about this subject, and here are their replies:

FOBS Meeting

9.00am Thursday 22nd June

We need more volunteers to keep the important fundraising and community work of our Parent Teacher Association going.

Could you help at a school disco? Could you help write a funding bid or match funding? Could you help with social media or graphic design? Have you got ideas for events?  

If you could spare a few hours a term supporting our school it would be greatly appreciated. 

Just come along on Thursday to get involved!  If you can't make the meeting please email fobs@bushmeadprimaryschool.co.uk
