Willowbank School, KilmarnockToday we went out a walk looking for sticks and stones to use them to play games on our Outdoor Learning day.
We were very responsible citizens when crossing the road and had lovely kind manners when passing members of the public.
Once we collected all we needed, we had fun at the park. However it then started to pour and we had to quickly get back to school! We were soaked by the time we got back.
We enjoyed our Summer Sensory Assembly on Wednesday, dressing up and playing with the beach ball was our favourite station.
They were confident individuals moving around the stations and taking part with only a small amount of support.
The pupils in the Oak class have created these wonderful cat face images using recycled scrap paper. The pupils were supported and encouraged to use serrated scissors to further develop fine motor skills and to add texture to their super art work.
Successful learners!
Throughout this term, the pupils in the Oak class have been learning about various famous Australian artists as part of their class topic. The children have investigated the colourful and simplistic elements of Ken Done’s painting style and recreated their own versions.
Successful learners!
The boys in the Oak class have been creating artwork inspired from indigenous pattern. The boys used a combination of art materials including, paint, crayons, pens, pencils, cotton buds…and their fingers to make these gorgeous dotty pictures!
Super successful learners!
Great friendship in the Oak class, everyone showed they were responsible citizens when walking into town yesterday. Blake and Angus demonstrated great road safety awareness when crossing the road.
We had some shopping to do and then enjoyed snack in the Coffee Trader. Cameron helped Mrs Murray place the order and had excellent manners when speaking to the lady in the café.
Father’s Day on Sunday, so we have been making some gifts to give to the special man in our life.
The boys have made a variety of gifts today and enjoyed sampling the popcorn for their movie night.
Time to bounce, have fun and take part in fantastic exercise.
Everyone has been very confident individuals during our rebound therapy sessions. The skills being worked on is endless whilst having fun on the trampoline. It never fails to amaze me the interaction, eye contact and listening skills that the pupils get a chance to develop through these opportunities to bounce. Also the smiles that are given when taking part in rebound therapy sessions are priceless.
Jack has impressed me greatly, he can get himself on and off the trampoline with every little support. Also very comfortable bouncing with both feet off the trampoline whilst supported by an adult. He can independently stand on the trampoline and maintain his balance whilst the trampoline is bounced gently.
Well the end of the year is almost here, the Oak gang celebrated our year by spending the day at Rouken Glen. It had been miserable weather all week so we went prepared with wellies and waterproofs, however the weather turned and it was a beautiful day for us!
This has been a busy fantastic year with the Oak gang full of fun challenges and the boys really are all great friends to one another! There is one thing for sure these boys are always guaranteed to make you smile!
Our day out was perfect and the photos do not do the day justice to how good it was! Everyone was very responsible citizens and extremely well behaved!
We enjoyed a walk around the grounds to see the waterfall and then through the woods. Great fun was had at the swing park and then a BBQ on the grass for lunch.
Our topic this term was learning about life in Australia, the Great Outdoors! So we had our Scottish experience with our wellies on and a BBQ, thankfully the umbrella was needed when cooking lunch!
Oak Gang, well done and thank you for a memorable, great year!
He had a fantastic ‘Around the World’ Sports day! Everyone had a great day and the sun came out for us! A lot of confident individuals and successful learners, trying their best in all their races!
