We have had a special visitor this week at Kings Copse. Kevin Allison is visiting the UK over the summer before he begins his studies to become a teacher of the Visually Impaired in Chicago, USA.
He has spent the week shadowing our staff and pupils gaining experience of the wide variety of impairments that we cater for at Kings Copse.
And to add to that he was guest of honour at this Friday's VIP club. The children really enjoyed quizzing Kevin during their VI circle time and particularly enjoyed hearing his accent!
Later on all the children were treated to a story read by one of our VI pupils who is working on his intonation and expression; this is more purposeful if it is to your friends rather than 'just an adult'. He read brilliantly!!!
