 |
- having a new form teacher.
- having a different teacher for each subject.
- getting lost around the school.
- reading your time table.
- making new friends.
- being the only person going to your new senior school from you primary school.
- what to do and who to tell if your are bullied.
- And the number one fear of year six pupils; “What if they flush my head down the toilet?”
 |
Telling the story of two good friends during their transition from primary to senior school and a pupil who is from an other area who has not yet made friends. We meet their teachers, mothers and friends and discover their fears of getting lost and “having their heads flushed down the toilet”! |
This play can be performed either at the primary school (during year six), or at senior school during their primary school intake day.
