Hopefully the weather cools down soon. For those of you who love the heat, enjoy 😊

Yesterday we looked at resilience, what it means and how we can help ourselves to improve ours. We tried some breathing exercises that can help when we feel overwhelmed, we also thought about self talk and what we say to ourselves and how to keep this positive, we also discussed what people are around us that can help us when we are feeling upset or having a hard time.
We continued learning about London and researched a chosen tourist attraction and then presented our findings to the rest of the group. Everyone accepted this challenge well, each student completed independent research and presented with such confidence considering it was their first time doing something like this. Well done everyone!

Unfortunately, last Thursday, our planned trip to Robin Hill had to be postponed because of the bad weather. All the students did very well accepting this disappointing news knowing it would be much more fun on another day without the rain.
We did a session on “winning with grace and losing with dignity” we had some great conversations around the big feelings associated with this and how to manage them.
We then did some more work on our World Tour topic, this time looking at London which we will continue this week

Today we had the sad event of saying goodbye to one of our students who is moving to the mainland, it was a day of mixed emotions but we played party games, sang karaoke and enjoyed a party food lunch together. We want to wish Tristan all the luck for his future and hope he settles in well to his new home

Wow, what another hot day today. Hope you’re all managing to stay cool!
This morning we continued work on our World Tour topic. It is great to see students confidence improving when researching things independently. We had a more chilled out afternoon as everyone was so hot and bothered and spent some time planning a party for one of our students who is leaving next week
This beautiful weather has really encouraged some of our donated roses to flower. It was such a nice surprise to see them in the garden today
