Winter term in Hopetoun

Leave a comment

What a busy term we have had in Hopetoun class, there has been lots of lovely learning on display as well as lots of fun activities. This term we have been learning all about “my favourite sound” and we put quite a few of these together into our Christmas show with recording of some of these sounds like explosions, giggles,  and different types of music. We have also enjoyed drama this term where our naughty horses have caused chaos! We have also been out and about to see lots of different Christmas lights and listen to Christmas sounds. We even went into chocolate production!We can’t wait to see what learning we can do next term. Have a very Merry Christmas!

Ochiltree have had a fabulous year! I for one have loved every minute of it and will miss them very much!

It has been a year of fun and laughter, skills and attainment and the children have done themselves and you proud!

Alex and Fletcher have achieved their Asdan Transition Challenge and move onto their senior phase after the summer.

Mollie also moves into the senior phase class with one more year of her Asdan to go.

Brendan, Liam and Stanley will continue on their Asdan journey in Ochiltree with new friends joining them after the summer.

I hope you have all kept up to date on their journey this year through their Learners Journal and have enjoyed all the photos and videos of how fantastic they have been participating in all the wonderful activities we have had this year.

A special thanks to all who have supported all the youngsters in Ochiltree this year goes to: Madge, Alison, Tracy, Kerri, Ashley and Susan.

Have a fantastic holiday and look forward to seeing you at some of our school getharings next year. x

Spring term in Lomond

What a busy term we have had! some of our highlights have been swimming for some of our children as well as continuing to explore our new school and gardens. The new willow sculptures are very exciting.

We have continued to enjoy activities like visiting the multi-sensory room and some of us are getting very good at activating the interactive floor.  We have enjoyed activities like our Burns day ceilidh and having two cafes this term has meant plenty of opportunities for cooking and baking as well as seeing lots of people coming into the school.

We continue to enjoy a weekly visit from the clown doctors and our cross class PE groups have been a big success. It’s always nice to be able to see friends from other classes.

We are looking forward to the summer term when hopefully the weather will be a bit nicer and we will be able to get out a bit more.

Have a lovely Easter holiday and we look forward to seeing you in a couple of weeks.

Our first cafe in our new school and what a lovely morning we had joined by some strangers………..

Thank you to all who came and enjoyed the lovely baking the children prepared over the week.

Thank you to all the children and staff for decorating the hall and making fantastic scarecrows.

Everyone had the opportunity to vote for their favourite – although everyone is a winner, Peat was the peoples favourite on the day.

Enjoy watching the videos of us all preparing for the day and a second one showing us all enjoying the morning.

See you all again for our Children in Need cafe on 17th November.

Term 1 in Lomond

What an exciting first term we have had in our new school. Everyone has had great fun exploring all the new areas of our school. The garden has been a particular favourite with all the children and they have enjoyed making full use of all the new equipment. Everything is so accessible for all the children. Another favourite of the children has been the multi-sensory room, it’s been a favourite of the staff as well with the ability to either a calming environment or a more interactive space where children can move around frequently to pop bubbles or squash ants!

Have fun looking through some of our photos of us enjoying our new school.
