Joel is amazing! He has been brilliant with children, and in some of his sessions he is working with some children that present with challenging behaviours.  These children love working with him, and really look forward to him taking them out.  The parents of these children often say a lot of their conversations with their children revolve around Joel’s sessions with them and how much they have enjoyed it.  They are incredibly happy, and we are seeing the impact that Joel’s sessions are having on these children reflected in the classroom.  He is engaging, fun and works well with the children.  At playtimes, children are so eager to join in with the fun activities Joel runs, and he really supports them with their turn-taking and social skill development.

Some children in my class also attend the dance club run on a Wednesday (I’ve forgotten the name of the person who runs it!) and they also really enjoy this! They are often practising their routines on the playground and showing us their moves they have learnt!

From what I have seen, all the staff at KRS are patient and understanding with our children at Halfway, but also ensure clear boundaries are set and expectations are met.  The children really enjoy having the team in, and although I cannot speak for all the staff here, I also enjoy seeing them.  The team are friendly and approachable, and no ask is too big for them.  They are a credit to you and your organisation.
