点评:We went on a SEN session back in September.
Saddened to find these are no longer a thing.
This place is incredible but unfortunately as a neurodivergent family totally inaccessible on a normal session.
B is a 12 year old who developmentally is around 6, he loves dressing up, role playing trouble is B is also a very tall child for his age. Other play areas around the area are just that little bit too small for him to access. B also just about tolerates his smaller sister E who again may be 9 in age but developmentally is about 4. Both have profound autism and associated needs. As a family we struggle to access really anything that enriches the children’s lives and their needs due to the lack of access that places offer. We as a family rely on SEND sessions to access these amazing places and not be isolated within the community. No two days are the same which means we don’t always make one monthly sessions but we do intensely try!
Half term and school holiday sessions are always a bonus too!
The great thing about this place was everything was adult height. B had no struggles role playing as a police man, exploring houses and taking his favourite convoy of teddies through the various places and spaces within the centre. E is the Houdini of the group and whilst found an outside way out, staff were extremely quick to respond and put measures in place to ensure that there indeed was no way out, E explored with huge amounts of confidence sliding down fireman poles, a day at the beach, lugging babies from the nursery and showing off her “neat” hairdressing skills.
The centre was extremely clean and tidy, well presented and staff couldn’t of been more excellent if they had tried.
Really sad that we won’t be able to access this again unless SEND sessions are reinstated or if we as a family could merge together with other families to private hire, as sadly risk assessing a normal session just wouldn’t be possible for us!
翻译:我们去年 9 月参加了一次 SEN 课程。
很遗憾发现这些课程不再存在。
这个地方很棒,但不幸的是,作为一个神经多样性家庭,在正常课程中完全无法进入。
B 是一个 12 岁的孩子,发育水平大约为 6 岁,他喜欢打扮,角色扮演的麻烦在于 B 也是一个比同龄人高很多的孩子。该地区的其他游乐区对他来说有点太小了。B 也勉强能容忍他小一点的妹妹 E,E 的年龄可能也是 9 岁,但发育水平大约为 4 岁。两人都患有严重的自闭症和相关需求。作为一个家庭,我们很难获得任何能丰富儿童生活和满足他们需求的东西,因为这些地方提供的通道不足。作为一个家庭,我们依靠 SEND 课程来进入这些神奇的地方,而不是在社区中被孤立。没有两天是相同的,这意味着我们并不总是每月举办一次课程,但我们会努力尝试!
半学期和学校假期课程也总是额外的福利!
这个地方最棒的地方是所有东西都是成人高度。B 毫不费力地扮演警察,探索房屋,带着他最喜欢的泰迪熊车队穿过中心内的各个地方和空间。E 是这个团体中的胡迪尼,虽然找到了一条外面的出路,但工作人员反应非常迅速,并采取措施确保确实没有出路,E 非常自信地从消防员杆上滑下来,在海滩度过一天,从托儿所里抱出婴儿,炫耀她“整洁”的美发技巧。
中心非常干净整洁,布置得很好,工作人员再好不过了。
真的很遗憾,除非恢复 SEND 课程,或者我们一家人可以和其他家庭合并到私人租用,否则我们将无法再次进入这里,因为遗憾的是,我们无法评估正常课程的风险!
