as most of you know my son thomas is disabled and is in a wheelchair, however thomas has never let many things stop him from doing what he wants to, today was school sports day and the kids whom are all disabled some can walk others cant, but they too never let their difficulties get in the way of a great day !

here are some pics of the kids all having a great tiem , the day finished in a footy match between the kids and the teachers, the result was the teachers won and a one man pitch invasion then occured , i will let you guess to whom the pitch invader was :b :- "

this is the sensory garden funding by the friends of the school

the new play area

the trophy for the winning team! this year was the green team , thomas was in the blue team

well done The Clare school!!! :huggles: :huggles:

great to see the effort put in to let the kids have a good time, they've got some good facilities in their playground, hope the pitch invader didn't streak across the pitch :lol:

Nice pix tott's.Wish i was there,as i have a soft spot for disabled kid's.My niece is mentaly and physicaly handicaped,and we nearly lost her a couple of years ago,due to repetitive epileptic fit's.She took 27 in total that day,but thankfuly it has'nt happened as much since they got the medication sorted a bit better.Great to see that Thomas is doing great,and has a good spirit. My daughter has just completed her N.V.Q.level 3,and hopes to work with disabled and slow learning kid's,which i think is great.Give Thomas our love. ...Billy...

thankfully no!!! (w00t) if there was i could not gave possibly done it however much i wanted too :- " because i was needed behind the camera for k9 pics!!

there was a reporter there doing an article on the new area the 6 form have called " the flat" here is a mobile out of use for whatever reason so they pupils turned it into a cafe for teachers and 6th formers , they also have bric a brac for sale and every wednesday is jacket potato day , the pupils have to go round the teachers , ask which they are having and then go shopping for anything they need, they then cook and serve , handling moneies etc , it was developed to give the kids some good work experience at their own pace, they also bake cakes and biscuits in life skills and the profits are put back into the scheme and so far this year, they have made £200 profit :thumbsup:

i will have a copy of the article coming as alfie and i were used in the photos buying coffee in the cafe , so will post the full article for you all to read :thumbsup:

no wasnt the small boy in that incident his incident was the poo in the playground (w00t) , the wheelchair went flying onto the pitch and he told the teachers EXACTLY what he though of the game :- " not like my son to speak his mind!! :- "

It looks a lovely school Tanya , Thomas is so lucky to have such fun.

I used to work with special needs and boy can they be demanding but they also give so much back to the carers and family that look after them , so many of them are so bright and clever .

Well done Thomas :cheers:

I hope your mum let you have a small beer !! after all that exercise
