Dear Parents and Carers
I write to share some good news with you.
We opened our Sensory Room yesterday. In February, I sourced additional funding from the Department of Education and shared with the school by E.A. This funding was used to install a Sensory Room for all pupils to avail of for rewards, relaxation and reducing anxiety.
All children got to visit the room yesterday. It has proved a winner. The feedback from the pupils and staff has been very positive. In addition, we have a Sensory Path on the corridor adjoining the Assembly Hall in place since Easter week. It is much loved and well used by the children.
In the ongoing challenging times we consider that both of these amenities are beneficial to reduce stress and anxiety for our pupils, while offering enjoyment and fun within the school day.
We are making a video which will go up on the Website, Facebook Page and Twitter on Monday 17th May in order that you can join us for a virtual tour of both. Hopefully this will give you the opportunity to share in your child/children’s experiences.
Once again I would like to take this opportunity to thank you for your continued support and the kind words I have received during these unprecedented times.
Take care of yourselves and your families and stay safe.
Kind regards,
Mary McCallion
Principal
