Welcome to the Rainbow Centre
Specialists in conductive education helping children with Cerebral Palsy throughout the South of England.

Saturday Club

Many children with cerebral palsy may be attending their local schools and spending much of their time focusing on gaining academic skills. Alongside this, however, it is very important that a child continues to learn how to increase the level of physical skill to achieve greater independence. The Saturday Club helps to achieve this.
All children at the Saturday Club have their own set of goals which are worked towards within a group environment. Parents are encouraged to accompany their children. Children of primary school age are grouped by ability and/or age. Children of secondary school age have specially tailored one hour individual sessions on a regular basis.

Aims

The session aims to:

•  Create a happy and secure environment for children in order to enjoy learning.

•  Maintain positive communication with parents to better benefit the overall development of the child and incorporate skills learned into everyday life situations.

•  Promote independence, social and daily living skills in order to become an active member of the school.

•  Liaise with other professionals by regular review meetings and reciprocal visits where appropriate.

•  Develop acceptable age appropriate behaviour

•  Build a child's confidence and motivation

•  Actively involve the child in his/her own learning and physical education

Attendance

A three hour session on a fortnightly basis, generally accompanied by parents and led by 1 conductor. Group size is varied, based on the childrens' needs and abilities.
