It has been a lively and rewarding two weeks here at the Caledonia Centre! We recently set up two new BGE classes, and it\u2019s wonderful to see all our pupils feeling much more positive and engaged with the new arrangements. A special moment was when one of our S1 pupils was joyfully reunited with a friend from S2\u2014having spent lots of time together in primary school, their reunion brought smiles all around.<\/p>\n

In the BGE Katrine room, pupils have been combining creativity and learning by using playdough to explore French numbers. It\u2019s great to see hands-on activities making language learning fun and interactive!<\/p>\n

Last week, we were delighted to welcome a visit from our QIO, Mrs. Sim, who recognized many of our S1 pupils from their primary schools. It was a lovely chance to catch up and share progress.<\/p>\n

Our cooking sessions are back in full swing, and this week the pupils made some delicious fruit breads. We\u2019ll be sharing photos soon\u2014stay tuned!<\/p>\n

Meanwhile, our S3 pupil has been leading an exciting project, building a bridge as part of pupil-led learning. The big question now is: How many bricks can it hold? We can\u2019t wait to find out! Our S4 English class have been developing skills in communicating straightforward information through letter writing, focusing on clarity and purpose. This practical work helps pupils express ideas clearly in everyday situations.<\/p>\n
