UPDATED MINI MEADOWS DATES We are delighted to confirm new dates for our Mini Meadows Stay and Play sessions – starting TOMORROW, 4 March. Take NOTE: The sessions will now be running once per month, on the first Wednesday of every month (during term time), from 10.00 until 11.30. Swipe to see the new dates! Mini Meadows sessions are for pre-school aged children with SEN (or on the pathway to diagnosis). Children enjoy free play, structured play and a complimentary snack, while parents can enjoy a safe space to meet other parents. As always, we are so grateful to @the_knightsf funding. #PondMeadow #MiniMeadows #SEN #Stayandplay #specialschool #specialneeds #specialeducation #senplaygroup

Girl Guiding and the Scout Association You may be aware that February 22nd was both World Thinking Day and Founder's Day - an important date for members of @Girl Guiding and the Scout Association respectively. It’s a day to remember and celebrate the birthday of Lord Baden-Powell, who founded Scouts, and his wife, Olave, who was the first Chief Girl Guide. It is also a day for all Guides and Girl Scouts to think of each other and celebrate their sisters all around the world. On Monday, one of our pupils wore her uniform to school to mark the occasion. #PondMeadow #specialschool #girlguides #scouts #worldthinkingday #equipforlife #specialchildren #send #autism #sendteacher #community

In the run-up to WORLD BOOK DAY (5 March), Pond Meadow is taking part in a READATHON (23 Feb-6 March) to raise money for the charity @readforgood . The Readathon encourages children to enjoy reading in all its forms, while raising money to support children in hospitals. Our students are already engaging in all forms of reading across school - from reading recipes to listening to audiobooks, from paired reading to sensory story exploration! We’re reading to help other children...and to celebrate reading together! Sponsorship is optional, but family and friends can donate online (see link in bio) or via the sponsorship card/form sent home: For more information about @readforgood , please see their profile. …And don’t forget to get your costumes ready for World Book Day on Thurs, 5 March! Many thanks for your continued support! #PondMeadow #specialschool #reading #literature #books #speechandlanguage #equipforlife #SEND #specialneeds #funatschool #handsonlearning #specialchildren #send #autism #sendteacher

How exciting! #PondMeadow #springterm #halfterm #specialschool #equipforlife #SEND #specialneeds #specialchildren #send #autism #sendteacher #specialeducation
