RISE Makaton Star of the Week 💚🩷💛

A huge well done to Jack for his fantastic Makaton skills during Tuesday’s session!

Jack has also been working incredibly hard on our Makaton book, “A Day at the Zoo.” Each week, he has been learning new pages to help prepare for our future Sing and Sign event.

Jack has been doing so well each week and has been working hard to sign his name confidently during our welcome circle.

Jack has also been working hard on learning our new Signs of the Week. This week’s signs were “milk”, “yogurt” and “rice”. Jack did an excellent job signing our new phrases and showed great confidence when practising them.

Jack has shown so much confidence and enthusiasm every week, and his progress recently has been amazing to see.✨

Keep up the great work, Jack! 👏

We are all so proud of you! 💚🩷💛

RISE Active Summer Sessions 🩷💚💛

What a fun evening we had at tonight’s FREE RISE Active Summer Session ⚽️

A huge thank you to Craig our football coach, who came along and led an amazing session for everyone. We started with a fun warm up before practising a range of football skills through lots of exciting and inclusive activities that everyone could take part in.

It’s safe to say we all had so much fun ⚽ The session definitely kept us active, had us all working up a sweat, scoring plenty of goals, and most importantly, working together as a team while encouraging one another throughout.

A massive thank you again to Craig for delivering such an enjoyable and engaging session we all had the best time ⚽️😁

We can’t wait to see you all again next Monday for another FREE RISE Active Summer Session 🩷💚💛
