In Dominic’s Class, we have been on a class trip to Cherry Hill Christmas Walk. We loved this sensory experience and being out in the community developing our confidence and independence. We got to see all of the Christmas lights and the interactive characters. We have been making decorations for the Christmas tree and hung them up during assembly. It was also amazing to welcome Santa into our class and collect a present. We hope everyone enjoys the holidays and we look forward to seeing you back in the New Year.
