Welcome to Petty Pool

The Autumn Watch Enrichment Group went for a walk in the woods this week and then created some art from the leaves we found!

This week the school of rock enrichment students have been learning keyboard and worked through many songs improving on their personal skills. On Guitar the students are working on their note knowledge and chord structures.

The floristry enrichment group worked hard and made a bouquet to take home. They are very pleased with them, they are lovely and colourful!

Jakob on his Abbeywood Work Placement this week; polishing cutlery, wiping & clearing away tables, & using some good Customer Service skills! Well done Jakob 👍

Petty Pool have something MASSIVE to celebrate! Last week Petty Pool took part in the national ‘Make a Difference Week;’ completing different essential projects to help improve their local community. Altogether, staff and students gave a whopping 375 voluntary hours of positive contribution to their community, including conservation work, ground clearance, litter picking and farm work. We’ve been flooded with kind messages of thanks from community groups, which we will share with you this week! A HUGE well done to all the students who made such a positive difference! #volunteering #makeadifference #students #positive #furthereducation

Great news! The total is in and The Spitting Feathers fundraiser raised a massive £400 for Petty Pool! We have decided that this money will be put towards the infamous Petty Pool Christmas Party! Let the festivities begin! #fundraiser #charity #spittingfeathers #furthereducation

The floristry enrichment group produced some beautiful vases today. The flowers are kindly donated from Fresh at Hartford!

Leavers(2) have worked really hard today at Delamere Forest clearing a large area for part of ‘Make A Difference Week.’ The students had the chance to use different tools such as loppers, sheers and bow saws. They worked really well as a team to help their local community, well done everyone!

Jakob from Prep for Work has had a very successful first morning at Northwich Library. He was a big hit with customers as he made them all smile while he served cakes and drinks. Well done!

This afternoon the Animal Care Enrichment group helped to clean out pens, feed and water the animals as well as holding and stroking them.
