Some of our pupils were lucky enough to take part in an exciting residential trip to Stubbers Adventure Centre this year. They embraced a wide range of new challenges, including caving, rifle shooting, bushcraft and many more adventurous activities, creating unforgettable memories along the way. A huge well done to all the pupils for their confidence in trying new activities and for showing kindness and encouragement towards one another. Thank you also to the staff who supported them throughout the experience.

Navigating Puberty

Children and young people who have a learning disability can experience increased challenges before or during puberty, from understanding the changes in their bodies to expressing their feelings and managing the difference between public and private behaviours.

We were fortunate to have a visit from the NSPCC  Schools service Dedicated SEND Schools Coordinator for the East Region. She has  pointed us in the direction of some appropriate resources to support parents with navigating puberty.
