Good Things
A poem for the Good Things Foundation by Learn for Life
It’s not that often you can stand
At one end of a city and
See the other end with ease
Through towers, terrace blocks and trees
“I am a city picnicking, I am peaks escaping
Scraping the sky
I am home
I am home working, waking, weaving
I am that endlessly glistening Sheffield”
I feel in control, in charge
At a strategic height
You feel serene
Relief from pain and think of the good future with hope
I like the people,
She says, they’re respectful
And the view
I find
It is very very beautiful
In my heart I feel good
As I see Sheffield
With its buildings and woods.

Outdoor Activities
We had our first socially distanced outing this week with a customised walking quiz. Small groups of 2-4 people explored the Sheffield Botanical Gardens together maintaining social distancing. It was lovely to see both staff and students enjoying themselves. We hope to be able to organise similar activities outdoors during August and September. If you are a Learn for Life student who would like to come on an outing please send us an email to: info@learnforlifeenterprise.com and look out for updates on the Facebook and Whatsapp group.
