Creative and performing arts

Our drama, music and art programs help students be creative and express themselves. They can join in performances, art shows and drama activities.

Trips and excursions

Our students enjoy getting out of the classroom to explore, learn and try new things. These experiences help them grow, build confidence and see how their learning connects to the world.

Sensory Gym

Students from our support classes and some of mainstream classes love to participate in the Sensory Gym program. It provides children with a fun and motivational environment to help them in the areas of strength, movement, sensory processing, communication, positive behaviour, social interactions, and self-care skills.
