Term 4 in Duntarvie 2024

What a busy last term!

Lots of our activities in term 4 have focused on Duke of Edinburgh.  Working on our skills, physical developments and volunteering.  Pupils have been:

  • Completing walking challenges using their supportive equipment
  • Caring for a range of animals with Calum from Cool Creatures
  • Improving skills in rebound therapy

As well as our weekly Duke of Edinburgh work we also took part in our Duke of Edinburgh expedition.  We all had brilliant fun – check out our video.

We want to say a big farewell to our S6 pupil leaving in the next couple of weeks and wish him all the best in his new adventures utilising adult services – he has been sneaking all his Nerf guns slowly over to Eilburn during his transition days! We can’t wait to share all his ‘best bits’ photos and a funny story or two at his leavers assembly this week.

Unique Fundraising Café

Thank you again for the wonderful support you all gave our S6 pupil in fundraising for the charity Unique and helping him to progress on his Bronze Duke of Edinburgh journey.

These are just some of the photos from the event and thank you again to all the children, staff, parents, carers, family members, friends of Beatlie and community groups who attended or donated for such a great cause.

Craig (Chief Operating Officer) at Unique also thanked Luca ‘Goodness me Luca, that’s absolutely amazing! £900 is incredible and we are so grateful to you all for your wonderful support. Unique is a small charity and we can only exist because of fundraising like yours… it means we can be there to help and support families when they need us most.’
