Willowbank School, KilmarnockWe had lots of fin today and all looked super cool in our Friends of Willowbank t-shirts. We had lots of fun on the bouncy slide and everyone had a turn. We also got to see some very lovely ponies and take them for a little walk around the atrium.

The Bluebells class have been very busy this week. On Monday afternoon, we completed lots of literacy and phonics jobs. We had to identify pictures using initial sounds, find magnetic upper and lowercase letters to make a range of words and also created some CVC words.
Well done to our wonderful families who joined us for a Makaton Taster session on Wednesday. It was great to see you all. Well done on all your sign and symbol use! We look forward to hearing how you all get on at home.
YES .a. The sun came out this week so we managed to get out and play on the playground equipment, make some bubbles and drawing with chalk on the pavement!!!
We were Confident Individuals and heated up some meatballs and boiled spaghetti – and tried eating it like Lady and the Tramp!
We enjoyed some time playing with different musical instruments.
We continued with our ICE Pack Theme – How Do I Feel? And read the story of Hugless Douglass, and then watched some Inside Out, played with the sensory material and made a new feelings poster for our room.
The Beech class had a lovely sensory morning in the art room. The pupils were given the opportunity to feel and manipulate various textures including:
With support, the pupils cut small pieces of their chosen textures, furry, smooth and bumpy, to design this fabulous parachuting, dainty, English cow!
Excellent collaborative work today from these effective contributors. Well done everyone!
The plastic bottle greenhouse is fairly taking shape!
The Transition boys worked hard this week, cleaning and helping to cut a LOT of plastic bottles for the construction. The pupils created a mini ‘production line’ which consisted of taking off labels – removing plastic lids – washing the bottles – drying the bottles – cutting off the bottom part – sorting into plastic bags… phew!
Excellent turn taking, listening and support of peers was witnessed during this exercise. Absolutely wonderful work from these effective contributors and responsible citizens!
Today the Pine class constructed these simple 3D fried egg models in relation to their class topic, Cloudy with a Chance of Meatballs.
The pupils were given the opportunity to explore a range of sensory materials, The final ‘fried eggs’ were created using white net material and yellow velvet.
Excellent work from these super confident individuals!
