P7 PE Transition Festival – A Huge Success! 🎉

What a fantastic day we had on Friday at our Berwickshire High School P7 PE Transition event! 😁

It was brilliant to welcome 50 P7 pupils along to take part in a range of fun, active sessions – giving them a real taste of what PE is like at BHS. From parkour and pickleball to football and race, everyone got involved, tried something new, and most importantly had fun!

We loved hearing such positive feedback from the pupils:

💬 “I enjoyed meeting new friends & seeing what PE is like”
💬 “It was good to learn what we will do in PE”
💬 “I’m really looking forward to joining PE”

A huge well done to Swinton, our highest attending school 👏🏻

A massive thank you to our BHS Sports Council superstars who led the sessions so confidently and made the event such a success – you were amazing!

And a huge thank you to our PE teachers for their support in helping deliver such a fantastic experience for the young people 🙌🏻

Finally, thank you to all the pupils who attended and gave it their all. We can’t wait to see you back at BHS soon! ❤🖤

👀 Keep an eye out… more P7 transition sport opportunities are coming very soon!
