In November 2017, we began using our new ASD building. This building is connected to the mainstream school and it is called ‘Le Chéile’. Mr Henry, chose this name to reinforce the importance of integration and inclusion in our school. The boys and girls from ‘Le Chéile’ attend their mainstream classes on a daily basis, while the rest of the school also benefit from the use of the new building through activities such as monthly assemblies, yoga, breakfast club, choir, boxing and a soft play area.
As ‘Le Chéile’ is a new building, we are still working to create a safe, practical and educational atmosphere to give the children the opportunities they need to reach their full potential. To achieve this, we are currently looking to create a sensory room and ball pool area. In order to do this correctly, the specialised equipment and fitting costs are expensive.
In aid of this worthy cause, on Friday the 9th of February we held a ‘Funky Sock Day’ at school. For a €2 donation, each child came to school wearing the funkiest pair of socks they could find or create. Taking something as seemingly simple as socks, the boys and girls of Holy Trinity SNS really proved just how creative and imaginative they are!
