Blindness experience

Last week we got the chance to meet a blind friend of Miss Graham's. He brought in his guide dog, answered lots of questions and taught us how to play goalball. We wore different blindfolds to experience full and partial blindness. It was hard work relying on our ears instead of our eyes!

Foot and mouth painting

We are learning about different disabilities. Yesterday we learnt how some people have not given up their dreams of painting and how they have learnt to adapt to cope with their disability. Most foot and mouth painters we looked at had had a motorbike, pool or rugby accident. We experienced what it was like to paint with either our feet our mouth. The challenge was to paint a autumn tree.
