Summentor Project

“Thank you so much to you and the team for having my daughters for the past two days. They had a great time and we really think it helped them feel more reassured about moving up to Beaminster in September”. Parent 2026.

The Prout Bridge Project run a programme during the summer holidays to assist year 6 pupils with the transition from primary to secondary education.

The programme will run over 2 or 3 days providing team/confidence building activities and the opportunity to get to know what secondary school life is like. We aim to give the young people an opportunity to get to share any anxieties they may have and talk about them in a relaxed atmosphere with older pupils who have already experienced and overcome worries about starting secondary school. 

This project has been very successful in the past and the things young people are worried about have been as small as ‘what do I need in my pencil case’ to ‘how will I know which classroom I need to go to’. Many young people worry about things that they feel are too ‘silly’ to talk about and having this time to relax and talk, enables them to get answers in a safe, non-judgemental environment.

Look out for details for 2027 next year.
