Olsen House School

The Life Skills day provided learners with a valuable opportunity to develop and practise practical skills in a real-world setting. Learners worked together to plan and complete a journey to Liverpool, using bus and ferry timetables to develop their travel planning, time management, teamwork, communication, problem-solving and decision-making skills. They successfully navigated to Queen Square Bus Station, completed the planned activities and organised their return journey to Crosby. The experience encouraged greater independence and confidence, while allowing learners to apply classroom learning to a genuine community situation.
