We have settled really well back into our new class. The boys have been enjoying lots of their preferred activities and have seemed to really enjoy exploring our new topic which is the Circus. We have made popcorn and bear toast in cookery and lots of circus animals in our art. Looking forward to lots of fun this year!
Class 12
September 2022
In September we have been getting settled back into school. We have been enjoying some familiar routines and activities, whilst also introducing some new activities. We have been trying out Rhythmic gymnastics using the ribbons to create a short sequence of movements. Attention autism around our Circus theme has also been fun and enjoyable.
June 2022
In June we have been enjoying exploring our sensory story linked to our topic about the farm. We have used props related to the story to act out the different parts. We particularly enjoyed washing all the animals.
May 2022
In May we have been enjoying noodle drumming. We have followed different routines to a range of pop songs. The pupil has shown great rhythm and control. A definite favourite has been ‘Shake it off’.
April 2022
In April we have been enjoying completing a range of physical activities. These have included rolling balls along a given track, balancing balls on cones and matching the beanbags to the coloured cards. We’ve also been doing these using different kinds of animal walks. One of our favourites was the duck walk!
March 2022
In March we have been creating Spring flowers using a range of mediums. We enjoyed working with Mount Ida Pottery to create a clay flower for our garden of hope. We have also made flowers using other materials including paints, tissue paper, foam and chalks. This has been the focus of our spring display.
February 2022
Our topic focus in February has been all about colour. We have been exploring colours through a range of activities such as art, tac pac and attention autism.

Class 12 Update - January 2020
Class 12 have had another great month. They have been doing lots of money work as we launched our new Senior School Tuck Shop a few weeks ago. One of the main drivers for starting the Tuck Shop was to offer our pupils the opportunity to practice money skills in a functional and meaningful way. We have our accountant and stock-takers, as well as pupils who serve customers in the shop. Of course all of Class 12 act as quality control—especially for the chocolate! We are finding that this initiate is already proving to be very worthwhile.
Pupils have also been learning new skills through the topic of Winter. I think by the end of it the pupils will be very glad they live here and not in the Arctic with the Intuits. Pupils have had the opportunity to be scientists and to carry out a range of experiments using ice. If you have an icy path just ask Class 12 and they will tell you how to melt it!
We also had a birthday this month A big 15!
