Huge congratulations to our new Rebound Therapy team. Everyone passed the 2 day course this week, meaning we have an opportunity to roll out this great therapy to even more of our Dales children. Our team will create bespoke pupil profiles, engage children in sensory regulation and enjoy intensive interaction sessions amongst a lot of fun.

Well done our bouncing buddies. We look forward to regular online updates to see our new, improved school Therapy offer.

Family Partnership Coffee Morning

12th May 2022Lee Wilkinson

The Family Partnership Team (Tracy and Glynis) would like to thank all parents/carers who attended the Coffee Morning at Ashdale today.

A big thank you to Deb Hill (OT) and Sarah Donnelley (Speech and Language) for supporting our parents and offering advice and guidance.
It has been so long since we have been able to ‘get together’ and this morning has shown how important it is to be able to meet with other parents / carers, share stories and support each other.
We gathered lots of information from you this morning (eg: workshops you may be interested in and areas which you would like more information),  and we will be looking into everything we discussed.
Thanks again, and please remember, you are amazing and doing a fantastic job under some, often, very difficult circumstances.
See you all soon
Tracy and Glynis

Medieval Times

In outdoor learning this week, we have been looking at how people used to live in the medi evil times. We looked at mud villages and also tried on a knights helmet. We also made a knights favourite drink, made from honey and water, a delicious treat back in the day.
