The annual Primary 7 Transition Week took place last 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 in their next schools.
They were taught lessons from teachers from Mercy College, Hazelwood College, Edmund Rice College, Blessed Trinity College, St. Mary’s and St. Malachy’s. Thank you so much to the schools who sent their teachers and to Mr Morrin (Community Links Coordinator) for liaising with the schools and organising this excellent week in the HCB Calendar.
