We are very excited to be opening the first A.S.D. class in Shankill this September, in Scoil Mhuire.
We will be welcoming 6 new pupils to our unit. We will have a state-of-the-art classroom, with a dedicated teacher and 2 SNAs. Alongside this we will be opening a Movement Room, where pupils will work on their fine motor and gross motor skills, in a fun way.
A further new development is our Sensory Room; this will be a place for all of our pupils to go to. It offers a chance for the pupil to get headspace and to relax, in a calming environment.
Our staff feel that Inclusion is so important in our school and I am happy that the opening of the unit promotes this sense of Inclusion. I look forward to welcoming our new pupils and their parents in September!
