My Project

Students of all ages are struggling to cope with the increased pressure and demands of school post COVID. The emotional and physical health needs of our children have never been greater.

In order to support students, out of the box ideas and tools need to be integrated into the educational setting.

One such way is through the use of MSEs (Multi-Sensory Environments). MSEs provide a safe and relaxing space in which students can destress, regulate and engage in meaningful interactions. The items in this project will supplement my school's MSE program.
