SSE community Volunteers – Be the Difference

Many thanks to all the staff from SSE who worked in the Sensory Garden with our Parent Ground Force Team.

This was part of a great initiative where thanks to the community volunteering project, Be the Difference, employees have the opportunity to take a day out of their typical working life to support local community projects. We were able  ‘borrow’ a team of hands, minds, ideas and skills completely free of charge to give our Sensory garden a bit of a makeover!

 

 

 

 

 

 

Aerial School with Every BODY Dance

What a fantastic day in the sunshine with everyBODYdance.

Pupils from classes Staffa and Skye were given the opportunity to work with Rachel and our very own dance specialists Linda and Ruth from Waterbaby Dance Company.

The staff spent time getting to know the pupils and letting them explore the equipment before getting in on the action. This was very important for some of our pupils who have autism and require extra time to process and try a new experiences.

Thank You

Pupils from Class Yell shopped today for ingredients to make cakes for their Red Nose Day Bake Sale.

When the store managers learned why they were shopping, they kindly agreed to donate some cakes for the sale – thank you to Laura at Waitrose, Kim at Sainsbury’s and Jacqui at Morrison’s.

Please remember to send your child in with money on
Friday so they can buy some of these delicious cakes and support Red Nose Day.

Burns Day

We are celebrating Robert Burns Day next Wednesday afternoon in the MOD.
Senior pupils will recite some Scottish poems and we will have a showcase from our very own Reels on Wheels.

All pupils are encouraged to bring some tartan accessories to school for the Scottish Ceilidh in the afternoon.
