The Sign of the Week is: TALK The Makaton sign for "talk" gives students and staff a reliable and visual way to indicate: I want to communicate I have something to say. Let's talk together And for staff to remind student to use their words if they can. Action: Tap or point towards your chin/mouth with your index finger and point away from you - say the word -"talk" as you do this.

A Fun-Filled Adventure at Our New Allotment Site for our DofE Volunteering Section! Today we took our very first trip our new local allotment site in walking distance from the school - and what an adventure it turned out to be! The moment we arrived, we got straight to work building even more bug hotels. From twigs, leaves and bark, we used all sorts of natural materials to create cosy hideaways for our tiny garden neighbours. But it wasn't all hard work... Somehow, we ended up inside the wheelbarrows, and yes, it was every bit as fun as it sounds! We also learned a lot about what it really takes to grow plants. It turns out it's not just popping a seed into soil, there's watering, weeding, digging, "patience... and even more patience." Everyone left with a new appreciation for the gardeners who keep things growing all year round. And just when we thought our adventure was over, we stumbled across a park on our walk back to school! Naturally, we couldn't resist stopping for a quick run around before heading back with muddy boots, tired legs, and huge smiles. It was a day full of learning, exploring, and heaps of fun. We can't wait to visit the allotment again soon! Thank you to Bradley and Julie for all your continued support.
