We are excited to introduce our newly established Resource Room within the Inclusive Education department. This space has been thoughtfully designed to meet the diverse needs of our students, providing a nurturing environment that fosters learning and personal growth.
Features of the Resource Room
- Sensory Nook: Our sensory nook is equipped to help students engage their senses and self-regulate. This area is perfect for those who may feel overwhelmed and need a calming space to refocus.
- Flexible Seating: Understanding that every student learns differently, we offer a variety of seating options. From bean bags to wobble and surf chairs, our flexible seating arrangements allow students to choose what works best for them, promoting comfort and concentration.
- Nurturing Environment: The Resource Room is designed to be a safe haven for our students. With warm colors, soft lighting, and inviting decor, we aim to create a space where students feel valued and supported.
Purpose of the Resource Room
The Resource Room serves as a quiet space for students who may need time to work independently or self-regulate. It is a place where they can take a break from their homeroom classroom, allowing for a more personalized learning experience.
We believe that every student deserves the opportunity to thrive in an environment that caters to their individual needs. Our Resource Room is an essential part of our commitment to inclusive education, ensuring that all students have access to the resources and support they need to succeed.
Our inclusive education teacher Ms. Spencer and educational assistant Amy Dwyer, work together with a team of clinicians who also provide specialized support, including:
- Speech Therapists: Helping students improve their communication skills.
- Physiotherapists: Assisting with physical development and mobility.
- Occupational Therapists: Supporting students in developing daily living skills and sensory processing.
Together, this team is committed to creating an inclusive and supportive educational environment that empowers every student to reach their full potential. We believe that collaboration and understanding are key to fostering a successful learning experience for all.
