Marr College was delighted to hold a Welcome Evening for P7 students and their parents . The P7s and parents had a nice visit and a tour around the Marr building . The library had VR headsets the they let the students have a shot , you could swim with sharks , have a look around a forest or be surrounded by cherry blossoms .
The Business Department gave the P7s a sneak peek at what would be happening in the following year - with visitors testing their Excel skills and trying out starter quizzes .
The Music Department had lots of musical instruments laid out for the students to try , they all seemed to enjoy having a shot of lots of instruments . The Science Department had experiments to do with Physics , Biology and Chemistry for everyone to try and the Art Department showed them a wide range of the kind of stuff they would be doing in S1 .
The Maths and Geography Departments had also shared some examples of tasks and student work to give an idea of what S1 might be like . This isn ' t all they did at the start they had a presentation from the Marr staff telling them all about how proud we are of our school and uniform .
Thanks to all the staff , students , P7s and parents who made the night a success .
