The annual Primary 7 Transition Week - a great success!!!

7th Mar 2025

The annual Primary 7 Transition Week took place this week and proved a great success for all involved. The boys had a wonderful experience, as they were given a taste of what their school timetable may look like in September 2025 in their next schools.

The boys were taught a variety of lessons including Business Studies, Soccer, Russian, Music, History, Science, Irish, Art, PE, Politics, Religion, French and Spanish from both our own HCB teachers and visiting teachers from Mercy College (Mr Billings), Hazelwood College, Blessed Trinity College (Mrs Bateson and Mr McLarnon), St. Mary’s (Miss McAtamney and Mrs Crilly) and St. Malachy’s (Mr Fleming).

Thank you so much to the schools who sent their teachers and to Mr Johnston & Mr McEvoy for liaising with the schools and organising this excellent week in the HCB Calendar.
