Pentland Summer Term!

A Wonderful Term in Pentland Class

What a joyful and memorable term we’ve had in Pentland! It has been filled with laughter, learning, and so many special moments that we are delighted to share with you.

The children have had great fun developing their skills on the trikes and wheelchair bike, showing determination and pride as they practiced steering, pedalling, and navigating around the playground. It has been wonderful to see their confidence grow each week, with lots of smiles and cheers along the way!

Our swimming sessions have also been a fantastic success. The children have worked incredibly hard at building their confidence in the water, and it has been amazing to watch them become more relaxed and adventurous. From splashing and kicking to floating and moving independently, every small achievement has been celebrated—and the enjoyment on their faces says it all.

Friendship and social interaction have been at the heart of everything we’ve done this term. The children have loved spending time playing together, sharing experiences, and building relationships. Whether indoors or out, there has been so much joy in simply interacting and having fun with their friends.

We were lucky enough to enjoy some wonderful trips this term too! Our visit to the Lyra Theatre was a truly special experience, sparking curiosity and excitement. Another highlight was our sailing trip, where the children embraced the adventure and had an incredible time trying something new in a supportive environment.

Back in school, our Fischy Music sessions have been full of energy and happiness. The children have loved singing, playing instruments, and moving to the music. These sessions have been a brilliant way for everyone to express themselves while having lots of fun together.

With the sunny weather blessing us, we’ve made the most of our playground, enjoying outdoor play and activities in the sunshine. There has been so much laughter and exploring all the playground equipment and simply enjoying being outside with friends.

We were also thrilled to have a visit from the M&M Theatre Company, who performed a delightful production of Pinocchio. Most of the children were captivated by the characters, music, and storytelling.

Another favourite activity has been our soft play sessions. These have been filled with excitement as the children climbed, balanced and explored the ball pool and swings. Not only was it great fun, but it also supported the development of important gross motor skills—and of course, lots of shared laughter with friends!

We also came together to celebrate World Epilepsy Day by wearing purple. It was a lovely opportunity to raise awareness and be part of something meaningful as a community, with everyone proudly joining in.

As we come to the end of such a happy and busy term, we want to say a huge thank you to all our families for your continued support. It truly makes a difference and hps create such a positive environment for the children to flourish.

We wish you all a wonderful, relaxing summer filled with fun and special moments. We look forward to welcoming everyone back for another exciting term ahead!
