🎵 Cause We Never Go Out of Style...🎵

 

Welcome to The SNU Hair Salon - we are now taking bookings for break times; with our senior stylist. Call 0800 SNU RAINY DAYS to complete your booking. 😃.. Anyone else love that feeling of your hair being played with? As you can see, one of our learners was almost asleep while his hair was being combed. So fascinating all the creative ideas our learners come up with to keep themselves busy when the weather keeps us inside.

Food skills are skilling....

 

Something smells good.. Take a look at us cooking over the past few weeks of food skills.

Through the Eye of the Beholder

 

Photography is not just a skill... it's a passion too and we love to see the enthusiasm and joy that taking a simple photo brings to our learners so we set a few of them a task: find something spectacular around our beautiful school grounds… and boy did they deliver. National Geographic couldn't have done it better as far as we're concerned. Such incredible talent! 

First Horse ride

 

We warmly welcome one of our new learners on her first horseback ride. Her excitement and thrill are truly contagious as she experiences the joy of riding for the very first time!

The learners rolled up their sleeves, ready to unleash their inner chefs and hopefully avoid setting off the fire alarm, while having a blast in the kitchen!

 

Picture day !!

 

What a fantastic day for a photo session! The learners were genuinely excited to capture their individual pictures.

Celebrating World Book Day 🤟🤓 📚

"The more that you read, the more things you'll know. The more that you learn , the more places you'll go." - Dr. Suess

This famous quote rings eternal especially on a day like today. We all took the time to appreciated books and book characters today. Did you?

Parent Connect Initiative

The transition to post-school life is a big step in the lives of our children. Parents often have many questions about what this pathway could look like. Every child is unique, and so is their journey. We know there is no one-size-fits-all solution but perhaps there are helpful pointers and tips that can be gleaned from the parents who are further down the road.

This week, we hosted a couple of parents whose children are now out of school and finding their way in the world. We heard their stories and got boat loads of inspiration and hope.

We would like to thank our parent body for the wonderful turnout last night. It was truly heartwarming to hear the stories and journeys shared by our past parents. Our moms spoke honestly and authentically about the obstacles they've faced and their ongoing efforts to find solutions that suit their children. Ali, our former student, was confident and proud as he shared about his first job, marriage and independence. Each speaker added great value to the evening.

Birthdays

 Over the holidays, a few of our children celebrated their special day.

HAPPY BIRTHDAY! 🎂

Parent Connect Evening: Life After School

Term 2 Begins

Let's Pitch a tent and Floaties too...

 

We put all our fun lessons and information gathering about camping to good use and built our own tents and campfires. Although the weather didn’t allow us to fully enjoy our splashtastic day, the learners still had plenty of fun creating and decorating their own swimming pools and floaties. We hope this helped make up a little for the disappointment of not being able to jump in the water 🙂

Campfire Games...

 

We had such fun playing some outdoor games and even some indoor ones "pretending" we were around a campfire.
