Last week at Oakwood we celebrated the return of our ‘Makaton Choir’. Our Makaton Choir takes place on a Friday lunchtime and we have lots of fun singing and signing together. Throughout our sessions a range of total communication resources are available to support everyone to become involved.

This week we proudly welcomed both old and new members and we all had a wonderful time sharing and using our fantastic singing and signing skills when performing one of our favourite songs ‘My School’. Please see the video link below to join in at home.

In the next few weeks we are looking forward to welcoming even more of our friends and we will be beginning to practice and perform some of our harvest songs, ready for our harvest celebrations.

At Oakwood, on Friday 1st October 2021 both staff and children took part in fundraising to help raise money for a very special cause ‘Macmillan Cancer Support’. In classes, all children had a fantastic time getting creative when decorating their own cakes to eat in school or some even took them home, we all created amazing unique designs. WELL DONE TO ALL!!! Our Oakwood staff also helped raise money by holding our own staff cake sale.

We would like to say a ‘huge thankyou’ to all parents for your very kind donations, they were greatly accepted. Please keep your eyes peeled to our school website and school app to find out how much we have raised at Oakwood.
