We loved visiting the cafe today.

We have become really confident in ordering our drinks and snacks and using money to pay.

All students communicated their wants and needs.

What a great morning!!

We loved our Film WOW Day which supported engagement and understanding about movies and gave the students the concrete experience of going to the cinema. 

Students came in their own clothes and handed in their cinema tickets to receive their snacks. Everyone loved going to the…

Students loved visiting the local sensory room. They climbed, rolled, pushed, pulled and relaxed. It was a wonderful session. Afterwards we visited MacDonalds for a tasty lunch. What a lovely day!!!

We had a wonderful morning celebrating our families. We even had a few guest appearances from our superheroes too. The cakes were delicious. Happy Friday!!

We are so excited to be inviting our families in to school for a celebration tomorrow. We have chosen which cakes to make, created a shopping list, went shopping on the bus then made our delicious treats. And of course - tidied up. So much learning and so much fun!

Students from KS4 loved celebrating today with their certificates and prizes for being super stars. 

Students loved learning about heroes in our community and in fiction. We were so lucky that the fire service visited us, what an amazing experience!!

Year 10 students really enjoyed their mini cafe enterprise project. They offered brekkie baps to staff for £2.00 and made a small profit which they will explore further in their maths lessons next week. Everyone worked as part of a team and loved every minute of this learning. Well done!!!

We worked hard in PE today practicing our fine and gross motor skills. We used our core strength to sit down and kick and throw balls too. 

Finally, we enjoyed a relaxation session. 

KS4W loved their community visit, using the public bus, to look at flowers and gardening equipment. They finished off their morning with a visit to a cafe. Students were impeccably behaved at all times. Even members of the public and the cafe staff commented on how well behaved and polite students…

KS4C have been learning about healthy eating and unhealthy food choices. They decided to cook a fake away and will compare the calories from their fake away against the usual take away version to see which is healthier.

All students worked as part of a team and helped each other.

Students built on skills learned through PE such as balance, core strength, fine and gross motor movements and teamwork. They loved playing Simon Says and then balloon bounce.
