Willowbank School, KilmarnockThe boys in the Bluebells class had lots of fun at Gemmell’s Garden Centre today! They were very responsible citizens on their long bus journey and then had great fun in soft play. They all enjoyed sausages for lunch and then we had a short play outside on the big tractor.
Has been a busy one!! We have had lots of rehearsals for the Christmas Show, we had cake for Miss. Burns’ Birthday – 21 again!!! Had our Class trip to the Cinema to see ‘The Incredibles 2’ then a happy meal for lunch, and loads of Christmas Crafts.
The Sunflowers were given the freedom to select and choose which colours they wanted to use for their artwork. The boys all worked together and shared the resources well.
Everyone was able to self assess at the end of the lesson and we all enjoyed the ‘Well Done’ song after each pupil presented their work.
Confident individuals today! Superb!
Kevin the carrot is a fun new Christmas character. Through Kevin’s adventures, the Snowdrops have been successfully learning new Makaton signs about Christmas, vegetables and colours. Kevin’s stories also showed us lots of different emotions and faces which we have had fun to try and copy. Everyone has made effective contributions to creating their own carrot characters using new paper craft techniques. The Snowdrops have also been recognising key Christmas pictures and exploring sounds which are being used in our nativity show.

We were lucky enough to be invited along to Rainbow House to see their Christmas decorations. The staff had decorated rooms and offices and they asked for our help to choose the best rooms. We loved visiting and got some lovely gifts and a nice snack.

The Moonbeams class had an outdoor learning challenge where they had to find 10 hidden stars in the sensory garden. Each star gave us an instruction that we had to complete – touch our toes, do star jumps, 10 second floss and even a Christmas conga!
The Beech and Transition class were lucky enough to be invited to the annual Variety Club party in Glasgow this week. We had an absolute ball! The pupils were all very responsible and effective contributors as they joined in all the activities and danced all afternoon!
We had lots of laughs in our Fun with Food group this morning, we were making apple frogs then tasting fruit. All the boys are very confident individuals when trying all the food with little prompting needed.
They are all becoming more curious about exploring and trying new food! Very pleased with them all, lots of smiles!
The Transition Boys were all Responsible Citizens at Gemmell’s Garden Center on Thursday. The boys walked around looking at the Christmas decorations and had a turn at ice-skating. They had a wonderful time which was topped of with some lovely shortbread and juice.
The Transition boys were all Successful Learners making totals with money in a Numeracy lesson. The boys had to make sure not to go over the total asked for or the Evil Banker (Mr Nicoll) would keep the extra! Luckily all boys managed to keep their correct change.
