Spraoí

Spraoi is our Junior Special Class with teacher Mrs. Kennedy and SNA’s Helen, Elaine and Caroline for 23-24.

Together in Spraoí class, we pride ourselves on celebrating everyone’s individual strengths, encouraging and enabling all to reach their full potential.

We recognise the importance of a child centred approach, adopting a wide variety of teaching methods and multisensory learning to enhance all our children to have access to the curriculum.

Our aim is to equip all of our children with the “tools” necessary to grow and develop into being the best of themselves. We recognise the importance of promoting social communication skills, life skills and independent living skills which we incorporate into our school day.

Spraoí is a colourful and creative classroom with six amazing and unique children. We are extremely proud of each individual child and feel very privileged to watch them achieve their individual goals.

Spraoí class busy with STEM (Science, Technology, Engineering and Maths). We decided we would make a bridge for the Three Billy Goat Gruffs to cross. We discussed that the bridge needed to be tall enough for the Troll to sit under, wide enough and strong enough for the Troll and the goats 🐐 to cross. Some of us even decided we needed blue paper for the water, brown paper on one side of the bridge to show all the grass that had been eaten and green paper on the other side to show why goats wanted to cross over the bridge to eat the “lush green grass.”
