This was definitely Mike and Laurence's favourite artwork in the exhibition @SMTrust . We couldn't tear our staff away from Bawden's map. Laurence then gave us a fab history lesson when we walked back to our classroom. #Functionalskills #art #history #learning
We have been inspired by Edward Bawden's map (1931) @SMTrust Scarborough Art Gallery to have a go at creating our own map. We are going to plot some important landmarks, chosen by our Blueberries. Can you guess what they are?
Blueberries were first in the queue to visit the newly opened @SMTrust Scarborough Art Gallery. We are working on two projects about Scarborough, so the exhibition was just the ticket! Next week, we will practise describing and talking about our favourite pieces.
Next week, our Scarborough Blueberries will be visiting @SMTrust Scarborough Art Gallery. We are very excited about visiting a real gallery but did you know, throughout the lockdown, the lovely folk at SMT have been sharing lovely resources online. Thank you!
@yorkmix @yorkpress @aamedia_org_uk #crafts #upcycling #preloved #shoplocal Please follow and retweet this wonderful enterprise
Did you know, our Blueberry friends in York have a pop-up shop? It's full of beautiful gifts and unique pieces of furniture...and the staff are very friendly, of course!

ALT The image shows a triangle with a crumpled grey paper texture against a dark blueish/grey background. The words 'preserve_konserwe' are written in lowercase light blue font, under that also written in the same font reads 'May 18 - July 25 2021'.
Blueberries and strawberries! Our trainee, Alan, has been helping lovely Martha @crescent_arts in partnership with @WoodendCreative to prepare the raised beds. They have divided all the strawberry plants, giving them space to grow. #EarthDay

Artist and Blueberry trainee, Liam Burke has been astounding us all with his drawing again! He is currently working on a new series of architectural drawings. What do you think @TheGrandScarbor? @SMTrust @crescent_arts @WoodendCreative @KaneCunningham #architecture #scarborough
Poets are emerging at Blueberry Academy in Scarborough! Megan was inspired by @wondykitten's poem 'In Scarborough' . We went on a walk and Megan noted her thoughts of Scarborough in lockdown, reflecting on some of the things she is missing.

Our Blueberries have been learning how to create an online shop for all their wonderful arts and crafts. What treasures can you find on our Folksy pages?
Watch Universal Talking News No. 487 on BFI Player player.bfi.org.uk/free/film/… Inspired by @SMTrust pictures about Shrove Tuesday, our tutor has been researching this wonderful tradition for our English classes. We can't wait to share this film with our trainees.

Our Blueberries have a new youtube channel. Here's a link to a song, written by Charlotte and performed by the English group. If you're feeling a bit low, this is the perfect pick-me-up!
Today our young trainees are learning about words that end in 'tion'. Spelling is important to make a good impression when we apply for jobs. How many 'tion' words can you think of?
Here are a couple in the news: vaccination, immunisation...
Our Blueberries are settling in to our new home @YMCAScarborough and it has inspired us to try and write our own pantomimes, in our English class. Our Art and Enterprise trainees are enjoying making props. In Scarborough, the cow has to be a donkey, of course!
Our lovely Blueberries will be making, creating, gaining English and maths skills, developing social and employability skills, supporting each other and having fun throughout this new lockdown. Staff are so proud of our trainees for staying positive. #EducationForAll #education
Scarborough is soooooo lucky to have such a plethora of creative folk. Scarborough is also VERY lucky to have @arcade_hello and @thesjt and co helping to bring creatives together. Now, more than ever, creativity is key. Join the conversation. Details below.🎪🎭🎨🧵🩰🖋

Today our Blueberries have been writing Halloween poems, inspired by a tweet from @YorkCastle about witch balls!
Here is Liam's poem. We like how he used rhyme in the middle of his sentences.
