16AR Spring 2

This half term 16AR are cooking and making their own lunches in the café each week. They are doing this in addition to making break time snacks for other students in the school and preparing staff lunches. The class decided what they would like to eat each week. Every Monday they make the main course and the pudding and all eat together in the café. It has proved a great success with everyone working together as a team.


16AR Spring 1 Blog

This half term several members of 16AR have been accessing the local community to explore leisure opportunities as part of the college’s sport and recreation mornings. They have braved the cold weather to take part in a wide variety of activities. They have played crazy golf, they have painted pottery and they have ridden bikes.

The students in 16AR new to Osborne College have adapted well to the routines and expectations of college life. The class have begun the term with energy and enthusiasm. 16AR have been looking at the school values and have been working hard to implement them throughout the day. It promises to be an exciting term.


16AR- Performing Arts

As part of their Performing arts and Creativity lessons 16AR have been preparing to put on a show. The class have been involved in every stage of the process making props and scenery. Last week they staged their show for other students in the college. The class performed a percussive performance of The Lion Sleeps Tonight and a dance to the song I wanna be like you. The audience and the class thoroughly enjoyed the experience.


Summer 1 Horticulture

The students in 16 AR have been very busy growing Herbs and potatoes.

We’ve enjoyed exploring all of the materials and tools needed to grow our produce.  When the weather has allowed it we’ve taken the opportunity to spend time outside, to complete tasks.

Tasks have included sifting soil, planting seeds, watering the herbs and potatoes and making our own labels.

Our herbs were grown in up cycled drink bottles and our potatoes are currently growing in buckets that will allow the students to pick them from the sides of the bucket, when grown.

All students have taken a lot of satisfaction from being involved, and were very motivated to help with all tasks.

If our potatoes are successful we’re hoping to make potato salad in our independent living skills class, ready to sell at the tuck shop!  Watch this space…………….
