Transition boys were Responsible Citizens when they went out in the community to visit a café and then returned back to school on a public bus. They put their passes on the machine successfully and collected their ticket.

FAOL – Outdoor Learning
The Stars class made bird feeders to feed to hungry birds in our sensory garden during the cold weather. We mixed together lard and bird seed then filled yogurt pots we’d saved from snack time. The pots were tied up high around the garden for the birds to access.

Oak Outing
This week in class we did some café role play during our maths work. We shared the menu with a friend and chose something to eat and drink. We then had to look at the price and hand over the correct coins. We also worked on our communication skills and had a practice of using our words supported with signs to make our order.
It was a lovely sunny fresh morning to walk to the Coffee Trader and each boy was confident individuals and successful learners at placing their order and choosing the correct coins.
This week we have been working hard on signing our Scottish poem ‘Cuddle Doon’. They were all very successful and listening and following the signs.
Ryan worked hard with his stomach exercises and is having a little rest

Scottish Snowdrops
The Snowdrops have all been successful learners, exploring the alphabet in a fun Scottish way. We have been creating our own tartans and choosing ways to match colours together. Everyone has also explored different colours and textures to decorate the initial capital of our names in a Scottish way.

FAOL Pointillism Pictures
The Oak class have been learning about Georges Seurat who was a neo-impressionist painter famous for using dots in his art work. This is known as pointillism. The children recreated these beautiful butterfly paintings based on the technique.
Excellent hard work and positive behaviour in the art room from these successful learners!

FAOL Tartan Paint!
The boys in the Sunflowers class have been learning about Robert Burns. The children visited the art room where they created their own ‘tartan paint’ using two different techniques. The first technique was to roll the colours out and the second was to scrape the colour.
The boys then used the tartan prints to make models of themselves and presented these to their peers!
Excellent work from these super successful learners.
