The secret senses

 

Do you know we have 8 senses in our body? 

The Upper Junior students are learning about this with their teachers and the therapy team!

 

The 5 main senses are sight, hearing, taste, touch and smell. 

 

There are 3 senses lots of people don't know about. 

 

Proprioceptive system: helps us to know where our body is in space.

Vestibular system: helps us to balance and tells us how we are moving.

Interoceptive system: helps us to know how our body feels on the inside.

As a school, we will be learning more about the interoceptive system - checking in with how our bodies are feeling and what these feelings mean. 

 

We will be sharing more about this as we progress on our learning journey! Stay tuned!
