This morning School Council joined in with the assembly. In their rolls as OPAL ambassadors they talked about all of the positive and amazing things they have seen or been involved in since OPAL started. They also reminded their friends how we need to use the equipment properly. They were amazing!
It is lovely to be able to share news about our children’s achievements out-of-school and Alfie in 6 Blue has had some brilliant football achievements to shout about. Alfie plays as goalkeeper for Hebburn Town Under 11s and his team has enjoyed a very successful season, resulting in promotion this year. Alfie was also awarded ‘Man-of-the-match’ in the last game of the season and he also won ‘Save-of-the-season’ too! What a fantastic achievement Alfie and keep up the brilliant work – well done to Hebburn Town Under 11s too!
Dear Community,
Please see the following information from Toby Henderson Trust. I do hope that you find it useful.
We would like to share details of our next Open day:
The Toby Henderson Trust (TTHT) at the Autism Hub will be hosting a Summer drop-in Garden party, giving everyone the opportunity to come along to meet the team, learn more about what we do, whilst enjoying some refreshments in our ‘Tranquillity Garden’. We also hope it will be an opportunity to help build on the communities understanding of Autism and inclusivity for all autistic individuals and their families. Whether you have a local business, work/live in the area, are a South Tyneside professional or parent/carer we would love for you to come along.
Date: Tuesday 18th June 2024 10am – 2pm.
Introduction to Makaton workshop for families:
We are offering a free ‘Introduction to Makaton’ Family Workshop on Monday 24th June, 10.00am-12.30pm, delivered by Makaton Tutor Anna Melling from Talk to the Hand Makaton Training (limited places available).
TTHT ‘Out & About’ in the community:
We understand through feedback received from families that it can be pretty tough, when your ‘cup is already full’ to come along to somewhere new and access support for the first time with people you have never met before. That’s why the team are so passionate about finding ways to break down those barriers and get ‘out and about’ in the community so families can meet us, have a chat and feel comfortable and reassured to come along to access our services at the autism hub.
We decided this summer we would add to the many ways we do this by planning a local ‘Walk & Talk’ event. This is a chance for anyone to meet us and join the TTHT at the Autism Hub Team on a relaxed walk and talk along the South Shields Coastline.
Wednesday 17th July 10am – 11am.
Full details can be found on the poster attached. No booking is required for this event.
Mrs Thomas asked the children for some ideas for activities that could be included in Breakfast Club. They went away to chat to their friends and collated some lists. We then came back together, discussed and finalised a wish list for Mrs Moody. The new items have arrived and will be rolled out into Breakfast Club after half term!
