As the winter nights close in sometimes this can have a negative effect on our behaviour and we might be feeling low in mood. Exercise has been proven to help with this, therefore our pupil support nurture class have been enjoying the use of our onsite gym this week to give them a boost!
The Gym
Silent Disco
If your child had a fabulous time at the silent disco last week and would like to enjoy another similar experience, our friends at Autisk are running an exciting Christmas themed event!
Water Safety Advice
Although a crisp winter walk by a stream, river or lake can be a wonderful way to clear the mind, please make sure that you consider this advice and remind your child of the dangers of open water.
