The Chill Out Room

 

The OTs have been working hard at setting up a new chill out sensory space for the whole school to enjoy. We have now repurposed an old space in the BER building with visual and tactile items including; a visual bubble tube which is switch adapted with different colours, the bubble pit which is also switch adapted with different coloured lights, some dark tents with tactile cushions (soft, sequin, light up, fluffy), a large pea pod blow up chair, a light-up cube, music and lava tiles. This space is dark and is intended to support students to become regulated, calm, and engaged. An enjoyable space for all! We can’t wait for all students to enjoy this beautiful space in our school.
