OUR MISSION: Amberley Ridge School gives every child a fresh start by providing a nurturing and happy environment that offers the opportunity to improve, develop and achieve their individual potential.

Hello and welcome to our residential department

 

The residential department offers an extended curriculum, offering activities to encourage learning and social skills. Each child has their own key- work group. This includes a sitting room for us to do our homework and to chill out in. 

 

 

 

 

Our own bedrooms which we have had painted in our chosen colour. Some of us even have en-suites and we all have access to a Jacuzzi bath. 

 

 

 

The Jacuzzi baths are in wet rooms where we can play and make lots of bubbles.

 

Each evening we chose activities these include trips to Keynes Park, bowling, Swindon Oasis, cinema, swimming, walks to the ice-cream factory, football and much more.

 

 

 

 

Please look at photos of some of our exciting activities

 

 

 

 

                                           

 

 

Each term our key-workers arrange special events. Last term we had a talent show. We are a very talented bunch even the staff. Talents include, singing, tap dancing, acting and climbing.

 

 

 

 

 

  

 

 

This term we will be having an end of term leaving party as we will be saying goodbye to our Year 6 pupils.
