One of our post 16 students has shared how important it was to her to be part of one of Lapwing's Post 16 groups last year. The girls from the group recently met up again for a day of baking, hot chocolate and catching up. R has written an article for our student magazine about this reunion, describing it as "a blast" and reflecting "I am pleased we did it because I did miss them a lot".

And here is Lapwing student Katrina again, sharing a powerful poem she has written called 'Identity' 🤩

21/10/2026

We are hugely proud to share the words of Lapwing student Katrina, who is an active member of the Norfolk SEND Youth Forum. Katrina was recently selected to write the foreword for the Norfolk Area SEND and Alternative provision strategy 2026-2027. It's so powerful when young people share their voices, experiences and wishes for the future. Congratulations Katrina!

If you are inspired by Katrina, you can also join the Norfolk SEND Youth Forum.

This week in history...

Event: On October 24 1929 share prices fell so drastically that their value depleted to almost nothing. This caused the New York Stock Market to crash, US banks to run out of money and businesses to go bankrupt.

Why was it important? These events led to the Great Depression, during which 15 million Americans were unemployed. People lost their savings, businesses and homes. It remains the most devasting stock market crash in US history. The economic depression spread around the world and hit Germany especially hard, which created an opportunity for Hi**er to exploit.

Discussion point: How can economic crises be prevented?

This week in the woods, students listened to the story of Odysseus and how he had to escape an island on a raft. Woodland leader Blake then set the challenge of building rafts out of sticks and floating them in the pond. Students learnt to tie a clove hitch and square lashing to secure their rafts.

Some delicious cookies baked by a student at our new Essex hub! These hubs are so important, enabling students to work on different activities with their staff in a shared safe space, enabling small but meaningful social interactions to build organically over time.
