Wow, what a difference a week makes. So many achievements from our group, from H coming out of the bus to meet new friends, to the other H developing confidence to ride Hugo. It was cold but smiles all round 🤩🐎🥶

On Thursday, a group went Rock Climbing in Glasgow. We tried a bit of bouldering, followed by working in teams on the climbing wall. To finish off we had a go at the clip and climbs. Outstanding work everyone (once again huge thanks to @FalkirkOutdoors) 🧗🧗‍♀️🤩

Some funky gymnastics on display in the gym hall yesterday. We were so impressed by the creativeness and confidence our R and C 🤸

Today’s play thread was all about VR headsets. We showed super problem solving skills to design and create our own! Incredible!! 🎮🕹️
