Our Level 6 Hospitality senior pupils planned and led a barista rewards party for the S2 pupils that helped Mrs Palin with the P7/S1 transition programme last session and this session. They were magnificent and very much valued.

Pupils enjoyed hot chocolates, coolers, cake and good tunes.

It was great to the see the senior pupils interacting with their younger peers.

We anticipate more of these events will be organised by our senior pupils.
