Cherry Class

Cherry Class had a super start to the term and their new topic "The Beach". We have learnt lots of Makaton signs for key words related to the seaside and used Google Maps to identify our closest beaches. We also had fun looking at local beach webcams and compared beaches today and in the past. We are enjoying getting out in the yard, sensory garden and the post-14 area and our starting to think about all the skills we need to develop for our Duke of Edinburgh expeditions in July.

Elm Class

In Post 14 we work on building up confidence to participate in society and visit our local services. Some of Elm went to a coffee morning with the St Austell Salvation Army Unit. We travelled in the minibus and we met some local members of the public. They served us drinks and we shared our chocolate with them. We practised introducing ourselves, social cues and joining conversations. We explored the building and would like to go back again soon.

The rest of Elm went to the library and enjoyed the peaceful environment for the morning. We looked at the books and enjoyed finding our favourite stories. We also practised our social cues and conversation skills.
