Company activities and impact

1. Breaking down how Chapter One runs each class (Green, Rainbow and Blue) For example our Green Class matches our lower support needs and is more for our able CYP providing life skills, learning activities that include our wheelchair uses such as a sports day! Painting and creating and building! Where as in comparison we have 2 other classes best suited to our complex young people and our more sensory based CYP. Both classes offering activities that bring out the best in our young people. For example in our sensory based class, staff provide tuff trays filled with jelly, rice krispees, sand, spaghetti hoops providing the textures that our sensory CYP crave to meet their sensory needs. Whilst our blue class has our complex class, these young people have timetables that include circle time and gives our CYP a time to say their early morning greetings by way of song and engagement. Followed by our CYP then discussing their feelings for the day by way of verbalising or picking their feeling cards (happy, sad, excited, unknown) which again helps us understands their emotions to get the best out of their day! Tailoring their emotions to activities. For example, if we have a majority of happy responses we could have a karaoke day! If our core group are mostly chilled, then we look at outdoor activities under the parasol less demanding, providing choices and being child led which we are proud to provide at chapter one. 2. We provided a Sunday programme .This was held at the Chamwell Centre at Milestones school And mostly attended by families who currently do not attend chapter one and for families struggling to take their Sen child to activities and days out where their disabled needs generally are not catered for. Onsite we had soft play, a fantastic outdoor area and chapter one brought over their resources from the centre and created little areas of different activities whereby we could cater to Sen CYP not known to us. We had a puzzle corner We had a sensory corner We had cars, toys and games corner We had our painting corner This was a very successful programme to provide families that struggle to find suitable days out for their Sen CYP. 3.Chapter one also opened our doors at the HUB (currently used for education and mentoring). We used this space for CYP struggling at Chapter One over 2 half terms. This gave our CYP a base to be themselves, to have their own space which they all benefitted from; to experience a quieter environment which suited all the CYP using the HUB rather than Chapter One which was a little overwhelming because of how busy the centre can be. What we feel Chapter One accomplishes across many different levels is provide a safe base providing opportunities for disabled CYP to come together to be themselves. Chapter One aims to contribute to their emotional and physical wellbeing when in our care. Giving an opportunity for Sen CYP to build relationships with peers with similar disabilities. We seek to support our CYP address their individual needs and help our CYP enjoy their time at the centre. We aim to provide a provision to engage in social, purposeful engagements and learning experiences. CYP can if they choose to access a balanced day of activities/resources and develop their independence through play and personalising each part of their day to have the 6 hours of support and care they deserve. In year 3 we have accomplished and by way of our accomplishment, all our SEN CYP have benefitted from the following: Providing a unique and tailored day for all our CYP in attendance Ensuring our CYP enjoy the experiences we provide Encouraging and developing their independence skills Achieving their full potential Helping all our CYP participate in all activities and resources Being a positive and secure, supportive and caring environment.
