Joining HHVCS will be a great opportunity to make lots of new friends. We pride ourselves as members of the school to create a safe, happy and caring environment. It can seem a little scary getting to know so many teachers and pupils in the school and remembering so many names but don't worry - pupils and teachers will help you.

Tips on making friends:
Tips on making friends:
Start by asking questions. Where do they come from? What school did they come from?
Be a good listener. Take time to listen to what people have to say.
Wish people a good morning/bore da or a good afternoon/prynhawn da.
Share a little about yourself. You don't need reveal too much, but think about what hobbies you have or what you did over the summer.
Do kind things. Holding a door, helping with a bag or helping find someone's way are all great ways of showing your kindness
Make them laugh. This doesn't mean shouting out jokes in class, you can be funny in lots of way and it is a great ice-breaker
Get together outside of class time. You may take the opportunity to join new clubs outside of school like swimming, rugby or netball, but you can also start mixing with your new friends safely outside of school.
Join an activity. There will be lots of extra-curricular opportunities for you to join inside and outside of school. Even if you've never played sports, acted or sung, starting secondary school is a great reason to take up a new activity or hobby.

The Wellbeing Room is open every break and lunch time for pupils in Year 7 to hang out, have fun and make friends. It is a great opportunity to make friends by playing games and getting involved in arts and crafts.
