Welcome to this page, where we hope you will find answers to all your questions about the transition process from your child\u2019s primary school to us here at Ysgol Aberconwy.\u00a0 We are delighted that you have chosen us for your child and we are keen to work with you to ensure that they can settle in quickly and happily over the next few months.\u00a0 <\/p>\n\n\n\n

We firmly believe that the key to an effective transition is good communication \u2013 so as you can see from the information on this page, there are a number of opportunities for you and your child to meet with various members of staff and students, talk with them, ask them questions and prepare for the start of year 7.\u00a0\u00a0 <\/p>\n\n\n\n

You will also discover that these culminate in a full week of transition activities toward the end of June, during which your child will have the chance to find their way around, make new friends and get to know key staff.<\/p>\n\n\n\n

Our experience suggests that by the end of the week most children are confident enough in their new surroundings to enjoy the summer without being worried or anxious.\u00a0 There is also a chance for you, as parents, to come in to school as well to see how they\u2019re getting on!<\/p>\n\n\n\n

Through these events and contacts, we hope that you will find everything you need \u2013 but if you have any questions at all, or have things you would like to discuss, please get in touch with us by email at\u00a0year6questions@aberconwy.conwy.sch.uk<\/a>\u00a0and we will get back to you as soon as we can.<\/p>\n\n<\/div>\n\t\t<\/div>\n\n
