Summer School Success
Our focus for Summer School was for our attendees to have a really positive experience, thus enabling them to feel a growing sense of confidence about beginning their journey at Matthew Moss in September. Over the course of the week, learners took part in a range of activities that relied on them using the CHANGE dispositions which lie at the very heart of Matthew Moss.
We began each morning with breakfast whilst reading extracts and completing activities from Marcus Rashford’s new book, ‘You are a Champion: How to be the best you can be’. After this, learners completed a range of Numeracy and Science activities. It has to be said that one of the favourite activities of the week had to be the Stem Rockets, which generated a real buzz of excitement and highlighted the competitive edge of our learners.
Throughout the week, our dedicated team of staff also provided a range of exciting and challenging activities: Team Building, Creative Writing, Arts and Crafts, Escape Room challenges, Baking, Sign Language and Well-being activities.
At the end of the week, parents and carers were welcomed into the school as part of a celebration of the week’s events. During the celebration, learners received certificates and showed off their sign language skills by signing their names.As the celebration came to a close, our 2021 Summer School learners left with arms laden with their arts and crafts, delicious baking and their copy of Marcus Rashford’s book.
