Rowan Class – Sensory Trust & Holi Celebrations

Rowan class have had a great few days. We have had the Sensory Trust: we planted small plants and seeds. We have also had a great time tie-dying this week as part of our Holi celebrations.

Oak Class Magdalen Trip

Oak Class Magdalen Trip

Oak and Juniper were lucky enough to take part in a 2 night residential at Magdalen Farm along with Rowan class. A big step for some of the students as it was their first trip away from home but all coped really well and engaged with the tasks we had to take on. They helped feeding the animals, collecting eggs, joined in with den building and planting trees. They enjoyed crafts using natural materials, making smoothies on the bike and making pizza in the eco oven for snack.  In addition to the farm tasks there was bed making, table setting and clearing to be done. Some of the students joined us for the day and despite the challenging weather they had a fantastic time joining in.
