To mark the end of our summer programme for adults we enjoyed a leisurely picnic in the park. Many of our learners who have arrived from Ukraine and Afghanistan are not familiar with the local facilities on offer. We decided to take them to the heart of Cowley, Florence Park.We were given exclusive access to the Naturescape grounds where our students could relax and participate in Art therapy. Thanks to our local artist Merlin, students were able to create their own pieces of art sitting in the midst of nature. After spending an afternoon exploring the grounds and creating beautiful art we enjoyed a scrumptious picnic spread at Flo’s Cafe. To end the day we decided to chill on picnic blankets and play a host of fun games and activities with all of our students and staff. From Volley ball to parachuting to Jenga, you name it, we played it. It was a beautiful end to a wonderful summer programme. With a couple of weeks to relax now, we hope to see our students back in September ready and refreshed for the new term.
