Wow – our first term together is almost complete!<\/p>\n

The last few weeks have gone by in a flash, with so many fun and varied activities both in school and out in the community.<\/p>\n

We’ve been working hard in class on our targets, and coming together for groups exploring our senses,\u00a0 enjoying music, story and song, and learning about looking after our bodies as we grow up too.<\/p>\n

Keeping active has been very important both in and out of school as well as increasing our independence and developing skills in communication, and growing in confidence.\u00a0 Cross class PE groups have been lots of fun, working together with friends and adults from across the secondary school, and learning new skills. Some pupils have also been back on the Innowalk, and quite literally making great strides in progress here!<\/p>\n

We’ve also contributed to whole school celebrations and events including Global Goals Week and Fairtrade Fortnight. We’ve been cooking up a range of healthy snacks, meals, and tasty treats in the pupil kitchen, and enjoying trying hard with some messy, bold art creations too.<\/p>\n

Many of our pupils have been very happy to welcome back our clown doctor friends as well as our fabulous music therapists, Ellie and Sophie – who have led some really lovely sessions with our pupils – and our dance therapist, Charan.<\/p>\n

We’ve definitely made good use of our busses this term, and have also enjoyed some lovely walks in this lovely Autumnal sunshine. We’ve enjoyed collecting items to explore as well as visiting local shops, cafes, the library, and attending a range of community groups including Musically Active Dudes, the Young Adults’ social group at Broxburn United Sports Club, and Gentle Exercise classes in Polbeth. These are brilliant opportunities to develop our life skills and meet new peers and adults too. One pupil has been particularly delighted to get back to his much loved gym visits too, and is working exceptionally hard!<\/p>\n

I look forward to what’s in store in the times ahead with our fabulous Duntarvie stars!<\/p>\n
