Thurs 29 August, LEAPS Transitions Course Induction – Social and Coffee Session, Chrystal Macmillan Centre - FULL

Meeting point and times: Meet at Seminar Room 1 in Chrystal Macmillan Building, 15a George Square, Edinburgh EH8 9LD at 15:00. The event will finish at 17:00.

What volunteers can take part? Any volunteer from any university can take part! We are just looking for friendly and talkative volunteers who can welcome new high school pupils onto our course.

Point of contact: If you have any issues on the day (e.g. sickness, running late), please text or call Keith on 07920159061 as soon as possible. 

Format of event: The LEAPS Transitions Course is a Bridging Programme that S6 LEAPS Eligible students take part in as part of their S6 timetable to support their transition into university study. This is their first session of the course and therefore will not all know each other. Volunteers will be asked to be there in the session to socialise with the students to encourage conversations and take part in varying light-touch (and hopefully fun!) tasks to get them talking to each other and asking general questions about university. 

How to sign up: Please email leapsvolunteers@ed.ac.uk if you would like to support this event.
