It's been another Jam-packed term at Heathermount, here's just a little snippet of what everyone has been up to! 

This term, Elm class are exploring the Romans in Britain as their topic.   They began the unit by exploring some ancient Roman items and using their inference skills to try and work out what they may have been used for and who they were used by. The class were excited to try on some of the Roman items for themselves! 

The students from Willow and Oak had a fabulous time at Chobham Adventure Farm.  They thoroughly enjoyed the soft play inside and explored the outdoor activities, including the bouncy pillows and donut slide.  Finally, the students had the opportunity to handle hens and ferrets in the Animal Barn, as well as stroking the cows, donkeys and rabbits amongst other farm animals.

Students have been working hard in their Catering lessons this term.  We are really proud of their achievements.  Older pupils have been working towards their Level 2 qualifications whilst younger ones have been focusing on key skills to ensure they are safe and confident in the kitchen.

Our Primary and Secondary sports days were a great success on the last days of term.  The students really enjoyed taking part in the different events, fully participated and learnt about working together.  Do look at our Galleries for more photos.

Elm Class went on a trip to the Apple Store in Reading to complete a workshop in creating music. The children developed their independence and life skills by buying train tickets and travelling to Reading. Then, at the store the children worked hard to create music using Garage Band developing their ICT skills as well as their music skills.
