πŸ”΅ Cooking at Crisp! πŸ”΅

Did you know our students help prepare lunch every day? 🍽️
Did you know this also contributes towards their BTEC Level 1 qualification?
And did you know they regularly bake delicious sweet treats for staff, students and parents? πŸ˜‹

Students involved in catering gain valuable hands-on experience while working towards their qualification in a fun and engaging way. They also have the opportunity to work alongside our qualified nutritionist, Rachel, creating tasty meals, developing new skills and building confidence in the kitchen πŸ‘©β€πŸ³πŸ°

This week one student made an assortment of cookies for the whole provision! They were incredible πŸͺπŸ”΅

πŸ”΅ Last Week of Term Attendance Challenge! πŸ”΅

As we head into the final week of term, Amber, our Safeguarding and Attendance Lead, has launched another attendance challenge to keep the momentum going!

On average, around 20 students achieve 100% attendance each week, which is something to be really proud of. Excellent attendance not only supports learning, but also helps students build confidence, develop social skills and strengthen friendships. Regular attendance gives students the best opportunity to thrive both academically and socially.

Last time, 13 students achieved 100% attendance over two weeks β€” a fantastic achievement πŸ‘ This time, we’re hoping to see even more students rise to the challenge! And of course… every student that achieves 100% will receive some chocolate πŸ«πŸ”΅

πŸ”΅ Off Site Fun πŸ”΅

Our students have been making the most of the off-site opportunities, taking part in a wide range of activities including football, indoor rock climbing, boxing, walks and fishing. They also visit an outdoor centre in Leicester every week, where they get involved in a variety of exciting activities such as high ropes, archery, shooting and axe throwing.

With the sunshine making an appearance, students have loved getting outdoors β˜€οΈ We can’t wait for the warmer months to see what else they get up to! πŸ”΅

πŸ”΅ Safeguarding Team Update πŸ”΅

Now that we’re a week into the final term of this academic year, we’d like to take the opportunity to reintroduce our Safeguarding Team and remind parents/carers of the support available.

The safety and wellbeing of our students is always our highest priorityβ€”whether that’s in provision, at home, in the community, or online. Our Safeguarding Team is available throughout the school day to offer guidance, support, and a listening ear whenever it’s needed.

We are also pleased to introduce Amber, our newly appointed Designated Safeguarding Lead (DSL). Amber has been part of our provision for the past 12 months and brings valuable prior experience from working within a college safeguarding team.

If you have any concerns about your child, please don’t hesitate to get in touch. You can contact Amber directly on 07427 854255, or email our safeguarding team at: safeguarding@crispvocationalprovision.co.uk , and a member of the team will respond as soon as possible.

Thank you for your continued support in helping us keep all of our students safe.

πŸ”΅ End of Term Highlights! πŸ«πŸ”΅

We hope you all had a relaxing and well-earned Easter break! We’re back, refreshed, and ready for the final termβ€”but first, here’s a little look at what our students got up to before the holidays…

1/2/3/4. Andy hosted a fantastic chocolate-making workshop, where students discovered the journey from ingredients to finished chocolate!
5/6. It’s not Easter without an Easter egg hunt! 🍫 A huge thank you to our generous donors Link3 Recruitment, SAAF Education & TeacherActive for their kindness and support. Thanks to them, our students enjoyed an amazing Easter egg hunt, with plenty of chocolate treats for everyone! 🐣
7/8. Tash and Holly took a group to Nottingham Playhouse to see Punch!, a powerful real-life story exploring hope, humanity, and the potential for change.
9/10. There was also time spent enjoying the sunshine while getting stuck into construction work and completing maintenance work around provision β˜€οΈ
11. Finally, students got stuck into an intense and very competitive game of dodgeball in tutor wars.

A fun, busy, and enjoyable term overall. It’s been great to have everyone back in full force this week, and we’re excited for what the final term of the year will bring! πŸ”΅

πŸ”΅ Highlight of the week! πŸ”΅

On Wednesday, 7 students enjoyed an amazing trip to Twycross Zoo with Bonnie and Craig. From giraffes and tigers, to creepy crawlies and goats, it was a great day out πŸ†πŸ’

At Crisp, we’re passionate about providing meaningful off site learning experiences. Each week, our students take part in activities beyond the classroom that help keep them engaged.

Also, how amazing are these photographs, some were taken by one of our very own students! πŸ“Έ

With the warmer weather (hopefully!) just around the corner, we’re already so excited to see what our students get up to next β˜€οΈ
