โ˜€๏ธ Looking back at our Summer Fair! ๐ŸŽช

Last term, we welcomed learners, families and staff to our Vale Farm campus for our Summer Fair, a brilliant opportunity to come together, explore the site and have plenty of fun along the way.

It was fantastic seeing families spending time at Vale Farm, getting involved in the activities and making memories together. ๐Ÿ’š

A huge thank you to everyone who helped organise the day and to all the families who joined us and made it such an enjoyable occasion.

๐ŸŒŸ Exciting news from Woodside Group! ๐ŸŒŸ

Weโ€™re pleased to announce our new partnership with Perkbox, bringing our staff a new range of benefits, rewards and wellbeing support.

From everyday savings and discounts to recognition, wellbeing resources and exclusive perks, Perkbox gives our teams even more ways to make their money go further, look after their wellbeing and celebrate the brilliant people they work alongside. ๐Ÿ’š

Itโ€™s another step in making sure the people who give so much to our learners feel valued and supported too.

Weโ€™re excited to have Perkbox on board and canโ€™t wait to see our teams making the most of everything it has to offer!

Looking back to last term, learners from Longdale Lodge OLC spent a Friday at Wollaton Hall as part of their enrichment activities, linking wellbeing with their talents and interests.

Taking time to explore their talents and interests to support wellbeing and build confidence.

Learning beyond the classroom gives our learners opportunities to discover what they enjoy, follow their curiosity and connect with the world around them. ๐Ÿ’™

**A Fantastic First Week at Nunhold House OLC! ๐Ÿ’™**

Nunhold House OLC is officially up and running! Our young people have embraced new routines, built relationships and explored their new school environment, showing resilience and a growing sense of belonging along the way.

๐Ÿ› ๏ธ **Building skills together**
A highlight was building their first bench! Learners put key employability skills into practice, including teamwork, communication, organisation, creativity and problem-solving. Seeing their finished bench become part of the school gave everyone something to celebrate.

๐ŸŒฟ **Learning in the community**
A walk to Hatton Locks Cafรฉ sparked thoughtful conversations about accessibility and how welcoming the environment was for autistic adults. It also provided opportunities to practise navigating country paths, roads and canal towpaths safely.

A wonderful start to our Nunhold journey!

What a way to finish our time with YuLife!

Weโ€™re incredibly proud to share that Woodside Group won the Cycling element of the YuLeague, competing against organisations from across the YuLife community.

After two fantastic years with YuLife, our time on the platform has now come to an end โ€“ and finishing as YuLeague Cycling Champions feels like the perfect way to sign off. ๐Ÿ’š

Over the last two years, YuLife has encouraged our team to get moving, take on challenges, support their wellbeing and, of course, enjoy a little friendly competition along the way.

A huge thank you to everyone across Woodside who got involved, logged those kilometres and helped us pedal our way to the top of the leaderboard. ๐Ÿšดโ€โ™€๏ธ๐Ÿšดโ€โ™‚๏ธ

And a big thank you to YuLife for a wonderful two years. Weโ€™ve had plenty of fun along the way, and we couldnโ€™t have asked for a much better finale.

After starting at base last week, our learners at White Stacks OLC have been settling in brilliantly. It has been fantastic to see them getting creative, trying new activities and beginning to make the space their own.

Alongside their creative work, learners have also been spending time building positive relationships with staff, getting to know the team and developing trust and confidence in their new environment.

Weโ€™re proud of how well everyone has started and look forward to seeing our learners continue to grow, create and thrive at White Stacks OLC. ๐ŸŒŸ

At Longdale Lodge OLC, our learners have been exploring the incredible life cycle of butterflies, from tiny caterpillars, to chrysalis, and finally to beautiful butterflies ready to take flight. ๐Ÿ›๐Ÿฆ‹

This hands-on experience gave learners the opportunity to observe each stage of growth closely, develop care and responsibility, and build a deeper understanding of the natural world around them. Once the butterflies were ready, learners released them into the wild, watching them begin the next part of their journey.

Activities like this are a perfect example of our Learning Outside the Classroom ethos. By taking learning beyond the traditional classroom, learners are able to connect with nature, ask questions, build curiosity and experience meaningful learning in a real-world setting.

A wonderful reminder that some of the best lessons happen outdoors. ๐ŸŒฟ
