It has felt quite autumnal this week and rain definitely stopped everybody participating in outdoor play on two occasions, although a few hardy stalwarts kept going on the swings under the shelter. Fortunately we have a number of spaces that can be used flexibly and so pupils were able to let off steam in the gym or soft play room or ‘coorie in’ with a book or board game in the common room. We encourage pupils not to use electronic devices at these times but instead to participate in social activities which help to foster resilience, negotiation and fun. read more here ...Meadowpark newsletter 07.09.18

Now that we are well under way with the autumn term it is reassuring to observe pupils in Meadowpark using our environment pertaining to their needs. Tyre Island continues to be a magnetic draw for moments as diverse as exhilaration as well as for contemplation. The ‘bouy’ swing under the shelter has become a necessary and sensory focus for reducing anxiety for a young person who recently moved from Romania. We are all gleaning a little of what life has been like for one of our new pupils and recognise that his need to flee is because he can and be safe within our environment. He has a clear exit strategy and is beginning to accept that certain boundaries are in place not to restrict or inhibit him but to keep him safe. Read more here... Meadowpark Newsletter (Week 3).
