I am really pleased that my daughter is getting more and more vocal. At the moment our home education, with all the support from you guys (holiday club, weekend club and afterschool club) really works in her favour. The staff are often young and energetic and have specialist knowledge, which inspires her to communicate.
Our PYC young people enjoy a diverse range of exciting and engaging activities that utilise our great facilities: sensory rooms, adapted kitchens and gardens and a hydro pool (once it's refurbishment is complete). Enriching activities such as cookery, music, drama, arts and outdoor play is on offer as well as getting out and about. This enables the young people to experience a variety of social activities whilst developing key life skills to enable independence and confidence.
Our clubs have earned a great reputation by Ofsted and we continually strive for excellence in our provision of care. Whilst actively listening to what our young people enjoy doing, our staff and expertise gives reassurance to families and carers.
We can recommend the club that would be best suited to you and your child’s needs and availability.
