Junior 1 Play Session
Our Junior 1 Play Sessions have been carefully designed to be a fun and enjoyable 45 minute session.
The activities planned will give your son or daughter a chance to express themselves and their personality, show their inquisitive side and display logic and reasoning in an enjoyable and informal setting. Our Principal Teacher of Kindergarten, Mrs Julie MacLaren, will guide your child through the session and establish where they are on their learning journey.
What is involved?
A mix of activities, drawing, puzzles and play will form the activity session.
We are interested in seeing how your son or daughter responds to instructions, communicates, listens and asks questions.
How can I prepare?
There is nothing to prepare ahead of time. This session is designed to help us get to know your child and ensures there are no specific needs we cannot support.
To put your child at ease, you can let them know they are coming to ‘big school’ to meet a teacher and take part in some games. We want them to enjoy their first taste of life at school!
On the day information
On the day of your child’s play session, please come to The High School of Glasgow Junior School - 27 Ledcameroch Road, Bearsden, Glasgow, G61 4AE - at your allotted time.
You can park on Ledcameroch Road, although please do note this can be busy at certain times of the day and you may be required to walk a short distance to reach the Junior School.
Once here, simply head to the Main Reception, which is well signposted, and you will be met by the Reception Team.
While your child is taking part in the play session you are more than welcome to stay in our Conference Room where there will be tea and coffee available.
We look forward to welcoming you and your son or daughter to our J1 Play Session!
