Life Skills

Literacy and Numeracy

 

We offer 1-1 tuition of Literacy and Numeracy at Entry level, level 1 and level 2.  We initially ask the student to do an assessment to identify which level they should be working at and then ask them to commit to a 1 hr session for 6 weeks.  At the end of the 6 weeks the student is able to stop or repeat another course of 6 weeks.  The tuition is free and you may self-refer.  If you are interested, please contact Carey or Denise on 01225 463549.

 

Food for Thought

 

Food for Thought is a book club which meets after Lunch box in St Michael’s crypt on a Wednesday 1.30 -2.30.  We do not all read the same book but rather each member reads extracts from books, magazine articles or poems which they would like to discuss with the group.  There is no pressure to bring something to read and you may just turn up on the off chance.  We always welcome new members. 

 

Taster sessions

 

On a Thursday afternoon we do taster sessions at Lifeline which are open to all.  We have art materials and often we do art or craft activities.  We started a project where we copied some of the great masters and put them on the wall some of which were exhibited in the abbey.  We have also done cookery sessions; how to cook on a budget, nail painting and glass painting.  At Christmas we made table decorations for the Christmas dinner and tree decorations. 

 

Games

 

In the winter we have organised skittles evenings at Widcombe Social Club which have been very popular and in the summer we play French boules in the park in Queens Square every Wednesday evening 5-6 pm – weather permitting. No previous experience required – just come and have a go.  On July 28th we had the first ever Genesis Boules tournament.
