We have had a lot of people enquire about what we do at The Cottage: we run a support service for Falkirk council secondary aged pupils who are unable to attend school for a prolonged period of time due to physical or mental health. #watchusgrow
Amazing what you can do with a toilet roll tube and some post it notes! We learned to work in miniature this week! Lots of patience and resilience!! @ASNFalkirk @dwellsASN @YvonneFultonASN
Thank you so much to the team for working with us! We can’t wait to come and visit you very soon!

Many thanks to the young people and staff @CottageFalkirk for working with us over the past couple of months.
We laughed, we cried, we crafted…and talked all things education.
We heard how well supported, listened to and understood the young people feel there.
We’ll miss our Friday sessions with you.
ALT A group of adults and teenagers sit round a table. They are all wearing different coloured cowboy hats. There are lots of crafting resources in the middle of the table such as paper, pens and glue. They all look quite happy focusing on their activity.
ALT A close up of light blue paper with recurring hand-drawn bright images of bumble bees and flowers.
ALT Two hand-decorated lampshades. One is a grey-green lace. One is cream with bright red large flowers.
Thank you so much to @ElaineKerridge1 and Alice from @CYPCS for coming today to talk about the young people’s experience of The Cottage. Also for taking part in our country and western themed day and teaching us how to make paper fidget toys! @JennyMc_ASN @ASNFalkirk
Throwback Thursday to summer days and learning in the garden! Feels like winter again today! Hopefully we are back to these days again soon! @RobertBissett1 @JennyMc_ASN
The Interrupted Learners Service Enterprise group absolutely smashed their latest project. We have received outstanding feedback, “never seen it look so good!” Seeing our young people enjoy success is priceless! @ASNFalkirk @YvonneFultonASN
The Interrupted Learners Service pupils have been very busy crafting again! These cards are going to our local care homes as Easter gifts! Let us know of anyone who would like one! @ASNFalkirk @YvonneFultonASN @JennyMc_ASN
Another amazing collaboration with @ElaineKerridge1 & the team from @CYPCS! Making lampshades whilst chatting about the experiences of young people who experience alternative education. Another exciting part of our joint project. @NicolaKillean @ASNFalkirk @JennyMc_ASN
Spring is starting to appear! These are made from cardboard tubes and wool! So impressed! @YvonneFultonASN #succeslooksdifferent

Today we had our initial visit from Alice and Elaine of @CYPCS. A very exciting, year long project, to work with young people who attend @CottageFalkirk and have different experiences of education. We can’t wait to involve more of our young people as the year goes on!@ASNFalkirk
