Halloween
This morning, we embraced the sunshine as our Orwell staff and students organized Halloween activities for other pupils at The Island Project. It was wonderful to see - our older pupils A and M hosted games for the younger ones. Everyone had the opportunity to "trick or treat" with Witch Tanya at reception, and there were sensory activities, silly string, and eyeball hunts. We missed the students who were absent due to illness - their trick or treat bags are ready for them
