Can I just say what a super year it has been working with the pupils and the staff. The progress is subtle but so profound and important. Strength in body’s but also development in communication eye contact and facial expression, simple hand gestures, Makaton signs, voice use. It all happens when we feel good. What a confidence boost !
In Rebound we have worked on flexibility for some, balance in sit, hands and knees, high kneeling and standing.
In PE we have worked on relays as seen at Sports Day. Sitting and standing walking on and over obstacles, rolling; crawling through the tunnel, working with hoops and hoola as long as we can; using trampette; cylinders and the big ball.
In Swimming and Hydro again we have worked hard and had lots of fun and challenges with great results. All pupils looking forward to come to the Willowbank Pool and having big smiles and motivation to get in has been great to see. Again with the superb staff support it makes for a fantastic learning and working enviroment.
