Setting up activities
We were challenged with setting up our own activities in a safe manner today. All students were able to carry out instructions, ask for help if needed & support their peers to create a setting for a table table tournament.
Sixth form dancers
A selection of Sixth Form students have been working hard on their dance performance for the Schools Alive Concert at the Winter Gardens. Here’s a preview of one of our fabulous dancers with their lit up wings.

Public services
In our theory lesson we recalled all the reasons why participation in sports has a positive effect on social, emotional, cognitive, team building & self confidence skills.
Blackpool & Fylde College
We have focused on rallies in table tennis today. The rules were, the ball can only bounce once on the opponents side, to serve the ball has to bounce on both sides, the games are played until 11 points & the ball hitting the floor is an immediate out.
Cooking club
Today we made spicy rice in after school cooking club. We added plenty of vegetables for extra flavour & managed to sample our food before we went home.
Keeping fit
We’ve been learning the importance of keeping fit & healthy. Also how important it is to warm the body up before exercise & cool the body down afterwards.
Dog training
Our Sixth Form students are working hard training Molly our therapy dog new tricks. Today Molly has been jumping through a hoop on command.
Table tennis
During Public Services at B&FC we have been learning the rules of table tennis. This week we have focused on forehand push & serving. Lindsay our college tutor has demonstrated how to hold the bat properly through shaking hands with the students as the same grip is required.
