Sensory Garden

During the summer and autumn months of 2022, we have been refurbishing our school courtyard and developing it in to a Sensory Garden.

A sensory garden is an outdoor space designed specifically to amplify all five senses: sight, smell, touch, taste, and sound.

With the help and support from the LEAR Corporation (a Redditch based company) the space, which is at the heart of the school, has been transformed in to a vibrant, purposeful area.

The Sensory Garden has a range of resources which children can access throughout the day. Once the spring term 2023 arrives, we are planning to further the garden with various plants. We will keep you up to date with all.
