The last College visit for Ash class this academic year was at SWRAC near Dorchester.  A small friendly college set in the Dorset countryside with lovely staff and students who spent the day with us telling us about their college and experiences. SWRAC have a range of animals including sheep, goats, donkeys ,and chicken that we enjoyed spending time with.

Pride Month at Mountjoy

Pride Month at Mountjoy

Jun 26, 2024

On Friday 21st June we celebrated Pride Month at Mountjoy.  Pride month is about acceptance, equality, and celebration and raising awareness of issues affecting the LGBTQIA+ community.  We have our own group the ‘ Sun and Moon Group’ who wanted a day of colour so students and staff wore different colours of the rainbow.

Masonic Fishing Trip

Masonic Fishing Trip

Jun 21, 2024

A small group of students were treated exceptionally well at Higher Kingcombe Fishing lakes today.  The Masonic Fishing Charity supported and entertained them all day.  Every student caught at least one fish.  Some were big and some were tiny.  It didn’t matter because we all congratulated each other on their achievements.  All the students and staff were treated to a lovely BBQ for lunch before a presentation where all the students were given a medal and a certificate.  A great day out!

Oak Class Residential – Magdelen Farm 2024

Oak Class Residential – Magdelen Farm 2024

May 17, 2024

Oak Class spent a fantastic few days at Magdalen Farm last week. Finally, after a tummy bug at the 11th hour halted the residential last time round, Oak Class made it to Magdalen Farm. Having accommodation in the ‘Farmhouse’ meant that the boys and staff had a ‘home away from home’ for a few days. We were shown around and looked after by Izzy our fantastic tutor who shared lots of different activities with us. Despite the persistent rain everyone had a fantastic time trying different activities and became quite adept at getting wellies and waterproofs on and off!
