Today we completed fitness testing in our Public Service session. Lindsay the b&fc tutor put us through the test, ensuring she was pushing us to be the best we could be. 

In Sixth form we’re preparing for adulthood in lots of different ways. During our Functional English lessons we have been learning how to fill forms in, this includes job applications, college applications &  passports. 

The weather may be wet & miserable, but that hasn’t stopped us having fun & being creative in our dance lesson with Lemon Dance Studio. 

5B were set a challenge in Maths today, to put these numbers in the right set & order them from 1-3. 

Thank you to Clare, Mags & Jack who work for the NHS. They come to the Oracle weekly to work with our students on worries & anxieties. 

The new term brings a new set of students to dog therapy training. They have been learning the commands & how to say them so Molly our therapy dog will listen. 
 

Public Services group visited the library at B&FC today. We researched books on health & fitness & found an interesting fact to pass onto our class. 
 

Today we have been using base tens to subtract 1’s from a two digit number. 

Well done to 4 of our students for completing their ‘Therapy Dog Ambassador’ training. 
They have undertaken 6 weeks of training with KRR Dog training company to become confident in giving instructions & commands to our therapy dogs. 
Well done! 

We have been reviewing our components of fitness during Public services. 

Fitness after school club runs every Monday after Sixth Form. A small circuit was set up to ensure our students made the most out of their fitness time. 

Today was dessert day & our Oracle cooking club decided on blueberry & lemon muffins. Each student followed their recipes to collect & weigh out food, wash & put away pots, cleaned down work surfaces all whilst smelling their delicious muffins cook.
