“The [Transition] Workshop has made me more excited to go to high school because now I know more about it than I did before. It has also made people in the class more confident who may have been nervous before. I learnt about the different clubs there and I will definitely attend the art club, since I love to draw. I also learnt more about the homework we might get.” – P7 Primary FOCUS student, Brunstane Primary School
