Courtlands School
Courtlands Special School Academy specialising in education for 4-11 year olds with MLD and SEMH needs.
✨ To our wonderful Year 6’s, as you put on your clothes and get your bag packed to attend Courtlands for the final time, ask your adults to read this to you… ✨
Dear Year 6, it's time to go,
And oh, how much you've helped us grow.
It feels like only yesterday
You came to us to learn and play.
We've watched you build friendships, strong and true,
Looking out for each other, just as you do.
Through smiles and laughter, tears and cheer,
You've filled our school with joy each year.
Each one of you has found your voice,
In your own unique and special choice.
Some through words, some through signs,
Some through actions that brightly shine.
A smile, a wave, a helping hand,
A look that says, "I understand."
However you choose to share your heart,
You've always been an important part.
We've seen you learn that feelings matter,
That every emotion deserves to be heard.
To ask for help, to show you care,
And know that someone will always be there.
You've learnt to keep yourselves safe each day,
At school, at home and out to play.
Making choices kind and wise,
Looking after yourselves and others' lives.
You've mixed and measured, baked and stirred,
Followed recipes, step by step.
There were floury tables, sticky hands,
And proud smiles at what you'd made.
You climbed, explored and gave things a try,
Picked yourselves up and reached so high.
Not because everything came with ease,
But because you never stopped believing.
You left behind the odd lost jumper,
A lonely water bottle or two.
The lost property will miss you almost...
As much as we'll all miss you!
Your kindness has made Courtlands shine,
Your laughter will echo through halls and time.
Every friendship, every smile,
Has made this place worthwhile.
Now it's time to spread your wings,
To discover all that tomorrow brings.
New adventures wait ahead,
With exciting paths to tread.
Wherever life may take you next,
Be proud of who you are.
Keep being kind, keep being brave,
Because that's your greatest strength by far.
Remember, there is no single way to shine,
No single way to speak or learn.
Every one of you has something wonderful to give,
And the world is brighter because of it.
Thank you for the memories you've made,
For every laugh and every achievement.
You'll always have a place with us,
And you'll always be part of the Courtlands family.
With love and every good wish for the future,
Your Courtlands School Family ❤️

They've done it again!!!
Thing 1 and Thing 2 managed to get their hands on some cream again and caused some more carnage in Parrot Class and on the playground! To end their visit, before they got shipped back in their box, they finished with a little boogie under the trees. I think some of the staff might be glad they're being picked up by Royal Mail ASAP 😂

Uh-oh, trouble is about...
Cat in the Hat has turned up to Courtlands with Thing 1 and Thing 2! The mischievous Things came to Dolphin Class with a helper and put cream in Miss Way's face - Dolphin Class found this hilarious. Thing 1 and Thing 2 finally left and went back to Cat in the Hat - hopefully they won't get up to any more mischief 😸
