Dear Parents and Carers,

We are pleased to announce that a stunning collaborative artwork by the pupils —created by a group of our talented students and inspired by the style of Hokusai—was entered into the Unique Art Award competition and has won a Group Silver Award! You can see their artwork, titled “Wave”, below.

Congratulations to all the young artists involved for their creativity, teamwork, and artistic excellence.

Family Coffee Mornings 

Tuesday 7th October 10 – 11.30am Short Breaks  
A Short Breaks representative will be joining to the Coffee Morning to talk to families about their services. Short Breaks is the provision for children with special educational needs and disabilities to spend time supported, away from families, engaging in activities or clubs. It will also be an opportunity to ask the representative questions about application processes and to answer questions that you may have.

Tuesday 14th October 10 – 11.00 am Visual and Symbol Support
Due to popular demand, we will be repeating the session on 23rd September where we will  introduce families to the effective use of visuals to support their children. We will be co-creating visuals such as timetables and communication boards so that you can use them at home or in other spaces.

 

A reminder that next week we are celebrating National Mental Health Day on Friday 10th October – pupils who want to can join in by wearing yellow or bringing a yellow accessory or item.
