What a week it has been for us. Lots of fun and learning has been taking place in class 15 and we have had an absolute blast! Hydro was brilliant this week as more children got into the pool and everyone did brilliantly. Music and movement was just great too with some very funky dancing going on. Moving through the week we’ve enjoyed another lovely run of our sensory story Where’s Olaf? Jabadao is getting better every week with some great involvement by everyone on Wednesday, lots of movement and physical activity taking place. Wednesday afternoon brought us our messy play session in which we made some Christmas card designs using lots of white paint! Thursday meant it was time for Rebound and we are really getting better at developing balance and proprioception skills. Well done for everyone for a marvellous week and we look forward to the fun beginning again next week!

Hello Everyone! What a lovely week we have had this week. Lots of great learning and some amazing engagement has been taking place. We’ve continued our Disney sensory story this week and the children are beginning to really engage with all of the resources, music and excitement that’s going on. We’ve spent lots of time in the great outdoors this week and it really does help to develop communication and interaction skills and there is no doubt we have some amazing spaces to have lots of fun. We’ve really enjoyed our time spent with Dave and Loveday’s class in Jabadao and Music this week as it’s great to see some other friends. We’ve had a great rebound session too with lots of energy, play and bounces. In assembly this week we had the privilege of seeing Varya receive a half term achiever award for some excellent work last half term in Nadia’s class. A big shout out for Jannat too, she got a medal for amazing engagement and being so calm and relaxed in school all week. Thanks for another amazing week and we look forward to seeing everyone on Monday for swimming! Have a lovely weekend!

Hello Everyone! What a first few weeks back it has been. We are absolutely delighted to have had a full week with the children and experience all their personalities, likes, dislikes, laughs and fun-time vibes! We really have a wonderful group of children who have responded brilliantly to coming back to school after the summer break.

This week we have been able to carry out lots of lovely sessions to work on lots of the children’s personalised learning outcomes. We have had some splashing fun in the shower room for water play (as the hydro was closed), lots of outdoor learning, lots of music, messy play fun, exploration, sing school, rebound, soft play and loads more!

Thank you so much for all the kind messages you’ve sent in regarding pictures we’ve been posting and also a big thank you for all of the goodies that have been sent in too!

Enjoy the pictures, have a lovely weekend and we shall see all the children on Tuesday!

We have been having fun doing lots of Christmas activities this week, making lots of crafts and getting messy! We have made Christmas calendars, wreaths, Santa faces, hats and cards. We also had a visit from Santa on Thursday!! It was so exciting and we were so happy to see him, he sang us songs and told us we are on the good list! It was such a lovely afternoon.

Our peak of the week without question was our trip to Northumberland Zoo! We had an absolute blast, we saw Snow Leopards, giant Spiders (that I promise I wasn’t afraid of), giant Snails, Millipedes with 100s of feet, Horses, Pigs and loads more! The weather was perfect, the children were all on great form and everyone was just so happy to be out and about. We would also like to express our complete gratitude to Northumberland Zoo for being very accommodating and for helping us have such a great time!

Just a quick thank you to Tracy too for organising Breakfast Club, the children love coming in on a morning and having breakfast with each other. Cereal is definitely the favourite in our class!

Have a lovely weekend!

Hello, and welcome back to our blog! We’ve had a lovely week learning loads and having lots of fun along the way! This week our sensory story was ‘How to catch a star’ and the children had an absolute blast trying to find the stars in the classroom. We tried to reach the star on the wall in the classroom by throwing balls at it, hitting it and even trying to blast a bicarbonate of soda and vinegar powered rocket at it! Once we realised our attempts were all in vain we luckily spied some stars hiding in the tuft tray and we used them to make some lovely beautiful stars by decorating them to go on our display

We’ve enjoyed lots of other fun filled activities such as Jabadao, rebound, messy play, outdoor leaning and much more.

To finish the week off we have had a lovely spa afternoon! This has been a massive success, everyone was engaged, talking and communicating beautifully.

We must send a big shout out to Frankie for getting the half term achiever award for last half term! Well done Frankie.

And well done to everyone for a brilliant week.

Have a super weekend!

We have had a lovely first week back, our topic this term is Space and we have had an Alien theme this week. Here are some pictures of some of the activities we have enjoyed.

Hello everyone, what a fantastic week we have had. Our sensory story this week was Goldilocks and the Three Bears, we enjoyed helping the three bears make their porridge. We put the porridge in the pan and used our fine motor skills to pour in the warm milk and mix it all together. We also developed our fine motor skills by ripping paper and sticking it down to make bear masks. We did some messy play with the porridge mixture, it was very MESSY indeed!

Next week is Halloween week so keep an eye out for lots of creepy updates!

What a busy week we have had filled with lots of fun activities! To start the week we celebrated Harvest Festival around the world, we chose a country which represented a member of our class, we chose Italy!  We stomped on grapes and also mashed them to make into ‘wine’ for Mr Rolling’s and Mrs Stokle to try in our Harvest assembly.

We then moved onto our sensory story of the week – The Gingerbread Man. We loved listening to the story, smelling ginger and mixed spice, mixing the ingredients and using our fine motor skills to roll out the ginger playdough and cut into a gingerbread man shape ready for the oven. We also decorated our own gingerbread man!

We also had a special visit from some Soldier’s who showed us their military truck, lots of messy play and some music therapy.
