Posted by in Challenge, Topics

The pupils of the Dog Class (third and fourth year/autistic pupils) learned in class about the Roman Empire. One day they started to a very special excursion.

They all had a lot of fun, although they were really unlucky with the weather.

Staff and Parent Feedback

Posted by in Time
