Well after our half term break 8A got straight back into our community visits and swimming lessons. This half term on a Monday and Tuesday we have cancelled our lunches and we are going for lunch to Seven Seas Fish and Chip shop in our community groups. Both groups really enjoyed their lunches and at the end of this term we have invited parents/carers to join us on our last trip. The pupils have gained so much confidence  by going out on these trips and are transferring skills into different environments. 
Our other visits are taking us to Chorley Tesco. This time we are walking through the park and catching the bus back. Again the pupils are gaining confidence in checking out the timetable and either paying their fares by cash, Go Henry  card or their NOW cards.

We have worked well in teams to build a structure using spaghetti and marshmallows, Mr Crew was very competitive in this activity.

In Cooking and Nutrition this term we are making smoothies. The pupils were able to choose what fruit went into their smoothies and they got to taste test each other’s. Daniel’s and Grace’s came out firm winners with the class. Not everyone wanted to try the smoothies as some of the pupils really didn’t like fruit. Let’s see how the recipes can be improved next week.

We have been doing dance in PE and the groups did a dance off. I must say I think we have a potential boyband in the making in 8A.

Our star of the week this week is Grace. A huge well done Grace, you are a superstar 

We hope you enjoy looking at our photos.
