The lovely Lighthouse!

One of the best parts of my job is when I go down to the Lighthouse and see all the fantastic things that are happening down there. The Lighthouse is our specialist centre for profoundly deaf children. They currently have 15 pupils there from 3 up to 11 years old. Within the centre, there are teaching rooms, a speech and language room, a cookery room and an amazing sensory room. The children in the centre spend part of their day in the Lighthouse and the rest of it in their classes. Last week, I popped down there and saw some great learning taking place.

Well done the Lighthouse. Keep up the great work!
