Last term, Worthing Red Balloon learners travelled by train and underground to visit the London Science Museum to explore its fascinating exhibits. The journey itself was an adventure, filled with teamwork, card games and curiosity. At the museum, they explored the History of Medicine.

At Red Balloon Aylesbury, learners have been enjoying playing games of Scrabble, where they have been expanding their vocabulary. Another favourite has been 'League of the Lexicon.' Learners have engaged in the joy of reading books such as 'Thursday Murder Club' and 'The Summer I Turned Pretty.'

Red Balloon exists because there are so many children who can’t attend and succeed in a “normal” mainstream school.
Will you give them a place where they can flourish?

Learners at Red Balloon Worthing celebrated Nature Week earlier this month. Learners always benefit from getting outside and being near the beach. Local parks gives them the perfect location to make the most of the nature around them!

Our learners have been hard at work at Red Balloon Aylesbury!
They have enjoyed making pizzas and cupcakes, and all the herbs added to their lunches come from their garden. They also have been focusing on healthy eating and are encouraging students to eat and drink during breaks.
We love seeing statistics like these! It means what we provide is working well for the young people who are with us. #educationforall #safeatschool

We recently had a chat with Kim Anderson, Head of Centre at Red Balloon Worthing, to learn more about her. Our Heads are a vital part of the Red Balloon Community, but there is so much more to them than just their title!

We were saddened to hear of the passing of Dame Patricia Routledge.
We are grateful for the kindness and steadfast support she so generously gave as a patron of Red Balloon. Her encouragement and belief in creating a better world lives on in the work we do with young people every day.
Where has the time gone?! We're nearly halfway through October! Get ahead of the holiday chaos and order your Red Balloon Christmas cards.

This year, #WorldMentalHealthDay focuses on mental health in humanitarian emergencies. We may not work on the front lines of emergencies, but we are in the business of recovery. Every day, we support young people who have experienced their own crises.

We were very sorry to learn of the passing of Dr Jane Goodall.
Red Balloon was fortunate enough to receive a grant from Dr Goodall's charity, Roots & Shoots, many years ago. It was an incredible asset in reaching young people in Merseyside who needed us, and we are forever grateful.
We're hiring! Take a look at our available vacancies! #hiring

For every student, there is someone who knows what teaching methods work, what topics inspire, which things seem hard and what the student thinks – and it’s the student themself. #whatwedo #inspiring #studentvoice
