From January 2024, we will be starting our OPAL journey 🙂
The link below gives you a little isight into that this might look like.
A letter is also coming home this week, asking for your support in collecting some of the loose parts we will need.
We are all very excited and know our OPAL journey will transform the children’s opportunities at lunchtime.
Please keep an eye on dojo and the website for more details.
This week we have been learning about the Northern Lights and the amazing patterns they create across the sky. We have created some beautiful Northern Light pictures using pastels and the ‘blending’ technique. We then decided that we would use the computers to create the same picture and compared the two. We enjoyed using the computers but the majority thought that the pastels looked better. What do you think?
The Key community Bus will be stopping at a range of venues acxross South Tyneside.
Downstairs there will be a shop selling good quality fresh fruit and vegetables, packet, tinned, and non perishable food and non-food and hygiene items, baby wipes, milk and nappies for very low prices in the hope of helping individuals/families money to go further, reduce waste and lower the need for the number of people attending food banks which is at an all time high. All money made from this project feeds back into the charity and food bank we run in South Shields.
Upstairs there is seating areas where we can offer advice and direct/refer individuals to relevant interventive services. We hope to have some of these services available on board to offer advice and are hoping to have the likes of welfare rights, Drug and alcohol services among others. The bus has an awning and out door seating and offers tea and coffee for those who would just like to come along and have a chat.
The bus is for absolutely anyone to use and is not restricted to those on benefits, it is for the whole community.
We currently offer free school uniform and winter coats free of charge upstairs on the bus and have a pop up Christmas shop with toys and Christmas items at very reduced prices.
