@MeEmilio1 out on the Driving Range!

[Melanie Saavedra @BFKCB]

Driving Range practice for Emilio today, independence is key. Taxi booked and off he goes, plays golf and books taxi back to college! Life skills at college has been the making of him, being partially sighted has never stopped him.

Brave and resilient and back home to recover. You were born to shine and no matter what health scare is thrown your way you bounce right back. He looks amazing and so much better than he was on Friday #warrior

Education is at a critical juncture; time for a real overhaul! Shifting from an outdated memorization paradigm to a dynamic model of co-construction & creative mastery. Embracing project-based learning that empowers kids w/ the essential skills, knowledge + understanding of the world they need to create their future. This is not just an option; it’s a necessity!

[Melanie Saavedra @BFKCB]

Special mention to @MrGreenStVin, he introduced Emilio to the world of VI sport. Emilio is now off to @RNC_Hereford to study sport for 3 years! Teaching at its best, Mr Green will be so very missed. @StVincentsL12 @DrJohnAPatters1 @davidstvin @BritBlindSport

@misterhistoryy @StVincentsL12 Thank you Mr Miller, can’t believe it’s coming to an end 😭

[Melanie Saavedra @BFKCB]

We get asked all the time if we would do it again and move from the south to Liverpool, the answer is YES! No other school has championed Emilio like @StVincentsL12, just 3 days left and my heart is so full. @DrJohnAPatters1 @davidstvin @MeEmilio1 @LivEchonews
