Another busy day in the pop hair shop!
Very busy, productive morning with the fabulous ladies from Pass it on Parents.
We had some lovely new parents and carers join us today, lots of helpful advice and information was shared and applications for grants, funding were completed.
Nicola from SEN transport came to explain a little about the new application forms which are available online from 1st February 2020. Nicola assured the parents the new changes are designed to provide the best possible service for the children, rather than trying to cut provision or costs.
The special 40th anniversary offer is families travelling across the network in Newcastle, Gateshead, South Tyneside, North Tyneside and Sunderland
During 2020, up to three children aged 11 and under can travel free at weekends and bank holidays, as long as they are travelling with a fare-paying adult.
How to take up the offer
Once the adult has their ticket or validated smartcard they simply speak to any station staff to let them in and out of the station using the wide access gate.
No tickets are needed for the children. Metro say: “For safety reasons please do not attempt to use the gate without staff assistance at the same time as the child or children travelling with you.

Another busy day in the ‘Hadrian pop up salon’, we had over 50 children visit throughout the day! It was a day of festive fun, Michael Buble Christmas songs playing, glitter nails and snacks for all.
We have used some of the money raised from the hair shop to buy a shed for outdoor learning, some new floating equipment for our younger children to use in the Hydro pool and a CD player for the quad play area.
Look forward to the next hair shop next term.
What is a Wiki?
Wikis are simple, accessible, secure and easy to build. They can be used to create multimedia person-centred plans that use pictures, words, video and sound to capture the voice, skills, aspirations and needs of the individual.
Wikis give ownership of the planning process to individuals and families, facilitating genuine collaboration between parents, teachers and professionals, with access given to view the wiki only from the person who has the log in, and only that person can add or edit its content.
Wikis offer a method for children with complex needs to explain some of those complexities in their own way, to record their needs and just do it once. It can hold lots of information that could help anyone working with your child understand themselves and their needs.
I have added a link to show one families experience and how this has worked so well for them.
Skills for Life have secured funding to train parents and give a years free trial for the first 50 families interested.
