All children from our Resource Base will have swimming lesson on Thursdays and PE lessons on Mondays or Tuesdays.
We are excited that all children will have Tabla lessons (a pair of Indian drums). It will help children to increase their body awareness, develop kinesthetic skills, coordination and self-control. Playing rhythms also improves listening skills and increases the children’s ability to focus for extended periods of time. We are sure that children will enjoy learning this new skill.
