Sensory

Many of our students have specific sensory needs which can impact on their learning. Research tells us that including sensory activities in daily programs enhances students learning. We incorporate a number of sensory techniques and programs in our teaching.

We have recently developed a Sensory Room for students. The room was created in consultation with therapists from Kurrajong Therapy Plus to ensure maximum benefit for students. The Sensory Room includes crash mats, an interactive whiteboard, various sensory balls, a platform swing, black out curtains, light up water tubes, yoga balls, a cocoon hanging tent and other equipment designed to meet the sensory needs of our students.

Student also have access to when sensory tools when they in class if needed.
