There's plenty going on at DHSSS this month...take a look at our December updates!

Things are starting to look a bit more festive at our Outreach Centre...

And we also have the first 'test batch' of mince pies ready for our open afternoon on Dec 11th!

Look at these amazing dolls which an artist friend of one of our teachers has donated to our hospital school rooms - so lovely for children to be able to see themselves represented and celebrated. Thank you, Jude!

So gorgeous. What brilliant kindness.

We are looking forward to welcoming visitors to our open afternoon this Weds from 2pm - do drop-in and find out about our work and our amazing students!

All set for our open afternoon - do drop in and see us!

Thank you Read for Good for sending us wonderful Michael again yesterday - he definitely brought the festive cheer to our Outreach Centre and Bramble Ward Royal Devon NHS

So pleased to see the amazing Michael about to go on his delivery round on Bramble Ward Royal Devon NHS - a huge 'thank you' from us too for your generous support of Read for Good

We were so pleased to be invited to this to try and ensure that the voices of some of our most vulnerable young people are heard - thank you for what felt like a very genuine listen Steve Race MP 💙💛

The kitchen at our Outreach Centre has been smelling very Christmassy this afternoon - great work from Year 9 and Year 11 students in their Food lessons!

As the end of term approaches, do take a look at all of of our news in our Autumn Term newsletter on our website - Devon Hospitals Short Stay School - Home

Great to see our students back to school this week, refreshed and ready for everything January brings!

So excited to unpack a new delivery of books today from the amazing Read for Good - thank you! And a new reading display outside our school room Royal Devon NHS too

Lovely to see our fabulous Read for Good storyteller, Michael, ready to deliver a festive read to a child on Bramble Ward Royal Devon NHS - a huge 'thank you' from us too

This looks like a great event for our families in North Devon Devon Libraries

Lots of interest in all things space in our Bramble Ward school room Royal Devon NHS this week
