Special Features for Kids with Disabilities

In 2014, we opened our brand new, purpose built school, complete with a wide range of features specifically to assist our children with such a wide range of disabilities. As you explore these below, we hope you feel as excited as us about the amazing features our students access to improve both their education and their physical / intellectual needs.
