Physical Wellbeing Team
Hello
We are the wellbeing team in school. We work closely with the school nursing team, Physiotherapist’s, Occupational Therapists and organise wheelchair clinics in school.
We work with the pupils in the hydrotherapy pool, sensory processing room and the rebound therapy room. We also deliver motor development groups and physio / movement groups. We work with pupils on a 1:1 basis to support them in achieving their physio targets set by the physiotherapist. We are also doing a lot of work supporting our pupils accessing sensory processing programmes. We are currently being supported in school by Julia Dyer, an Occupational Therapist with a wealth of knowledge and understanding in sensory processing. She has advised us on how to set up sensory circuits in our purpose built sensory processing room and we are now working closely with her to ensure all lessons at Holly Grove incorporate elements of sensory processing throughout the day. This enables our children to access learning more effectively.
