Freya tells you about what happens on the first day! This short video covers all the aspects of arriving at school to your timetable, your planner and what you need to carry with you in that school bag!

Tom tells you about what happens when you join Ysgol Eirias from a pupil’s point of view. In this video Tom tells you about everything from arriving at school to what clubs you can join.

It’s important that you know what help and support is available to new pupils in Year 7. In this video Mrs Zachara, Deputy Head of Learning for Year 7 says hello and tells you what she can do to help and support new pupils joining us in September.

Morning registration is the start to the school day at Ysgol Eirias. It’s very important that you are in school on time for this part of the day. This is when you meet your form tutor every morning so they can make sure everything is ok with you and that you have all the necessary information for the day ahead.

Moving schools will involve a completely new routine in the mornings. How are you going to prepare going to school in September? In this video Mr Bowen-Jones gives you some advice on how to make those preparations and be ready to ‘get up and go’ in September.

Starting a new school means that you are going to meet a lot of new people you won’t know. The idea of this video is to give you the heads up about the staff who are involved in Year 7. From Mrs Sutton to Mrs Walker, who are they? How will I recognise them? What do they do in the school?

In these uncertain times Mr Bowen-Jones welcomes new pupils who are joining Ysgol Eirias in September 2020 with some words of advice and encouragement. He tells pupils that Ysgol Eirias is working hard to ensure their move to secondary school is going to be OK and they are not to worry!

For both pupils and parents there will be many questions about moving up to Year 7 in high school that need answers. This video aims to give pupils some re-assurance about Year 7 and gives the opportunity to send in your questions to Mr Bowen-Jones via the: Year 6 Transition Email address.

Welcome to all Year 6 pupils.

We are going to present you with a series of vlogs to say hello, introduce you to staff members, and help to familiarise you with some of the areas of importance for Year 7 pupils.

This first vlog is a brief welcome from the Headteacher of Ysgol Eirias, Mrs Sutton.
