Questions about transition to secondary school.

This afternoon, the Year 6’s who are in school had a question and answer session with Mrs Robinson about making their transition to secondary school. They asked lots of different questions, from daily routines to the possibility of detention!

Here is a copy of their questions and the very useful answers which were given for you to take a look at.
