Breadalbane Academy Transition Day
Our summer programme was staffed by our full-time youth workers who ensured quality provision throughout the programme . Staff members shared responsibility for ensuring quality youth work and safe risk assessed opportunities .
Our transition day provision in collaboration with Breadalbane Academy has given us the opportunity to build relationships with the school but most importantly a group of S1 ' s who have been struggling with the move to high school . This is a cohort of pupils we have previously struggled to engage due to covid restrictions limiting our Rock Steady events . By playing a part in their initial transition we have built strong trustful relationships with them , and they have now become regular attendees at our dedicated S1 space . We recently built on this work by taken them to Ryze in Dundee as an extension to the summer programme , and since then numbers have been increasing each week .
We are looking forward to building on this with STEM sessions including robotics and drone sessions , as well as reinstating our S1 committee .
