Doucecroft School Read our Ofsted Report About Doucecroft The Team Living & Learning Key Information Students Area Parents Area Summer Holidays We have had a fantastic summer term this year! We have taken part in a wide range of on-site and off-site activities including; Mersea crabbing We love going down to Mersea Island to hunt for crabs. We put bait in our nets and then waited excitedly to see how many we caught! Here is a photo of Mikey concentrating hard! Can you believe a seal came to see us? Discovery centre The Discovery centre park trail covers 100 acres of open space and has a giant seesaw, climbing forest, tyre swings, sand pits, rope climbers, slides and forts. It was great to spend the day exploring. Our favourite parts of the day were playing in the play park and the sandpits. Here are some photos of our day. Julian having fun on the round-about Imeth getting sandy! Trampolining at Jump street We also visited Jump Street in Colchester and we had the best time! Here are some photos of us bouncing away. Hollow Trees Farm We enjoyed looking at and feeding all the lovely animals at the farm, here are some photos of our great day out. It was such a summery, sunny day! Walton-On-The-Naze Who doesn’t love a day at the beach? We always have so much fun at Walton On The Naze as we can play on the beach or visit the arcades. Roller World We had a very energetic morning at Roller World! We are very good at it too, here are some photos of us whizzing around the arena! Zooming around Swimming at Leisure World Swimming is one of our favourite activities, we love Leisure World as it has rapids and flumes for us to enjoy - although some of our staff members aren’t as brave as us! We are too busy swimming to take photos of this activity, after all it is our favourite! On – site We are so busy during the week that sometimes it was nice to have a chill out day and stay on-site. Our staff members are very creative and set up lots of exciting activities for us all to take part in. Some of these include; baking, sensory play, arts and craft activities and even a film night! Here are some photos of some of our activities:
