My Project

Our students are incredible, diverse learners with a wide range of needs, and I want to create a safe, calming space where they can thrive. This project will help us build a new sensory room filled with tools and materials designed to support students who benefit from sensory input. I am looking for the basic items of a swing, floor mats, wall lights etc.

The sensory room will be a refuge for students who need a break from overstimulation, a space to regulate their emotions, and a way to refocus so they can return to class ready to learn.

With your help, we can create an inclusive environment where every child feels supported, understood, and ready to succeed.
