Special Educational Needs & Disabilities Parent Coffee Morning<br />
At 9am on Monday 23rd January, we will be holding a coffee morning for parents of<br />
children with Special Educational Needs and Disabilities. The purpose of this meeting<br />
will be for parents to meet each other and form connections with other parents<br />
of children with additional needs. Our school’s SENDCo (Special Educational Needs<br />
and Disabilities Coordinator), Sophie Law, will also be there in case you would like to<br />
touch base or ask any questions. There will also be some external professionals in attendance<br />
to share their expertise and provide support or information about external<br />
support that is available to you.<br />
We would love to see as many parents as possible in attendance. Your child does not<br />
need to have a diagnosis of an additional need, anyone is welcome to come along.<br />
This will be a very informal meeting, a chance to form connections with others as<br />
well as to have a catch up and support each other. If you are unable to attend this<br />
date and time, we will be having more of these coffee mornings (once a term), so<br />
that you can hopefully attend future meetings instead. There will be tea, coffee and<br />
cake available so please pop in and say hello as well as having a drink and something<br />
to eat.<br />

Oracy Challenge<br />
Odd One Out: Begin by naming three items – two that are connected in some way and one<br />
that is not (you can make this as easy or as hard as you wish, depending upon the age and<br />
interests of your children) and ask your children to choose the odd one out. For example with<br />
“train, bus, hair” it is easy to identify the odd one out. “Platypus, cobra, horse” is more challenging.<br />
“Chop, chicken, ship” focuses the game on identifying different sounds. “21, 63, 78”<br />
turns it into a math challenge. Have fun!
