Lathom Wellbeing Sensory Garden

From "People Powered East Ham"

Go to the project

Proposed budget

GBP 10,000

Description

Through our youth-led project, Year 6 children have generated a proposal to support pupils’ well-being by improving the playground provision at our school.

Our project will transform a currently hard and uninspiring outdoor area into an engaging sensory play space that directly improves the quality of life for children in our school and the wider community. Here are the ideas from the pupils:          

 A sensory outdoor play zone including climbing structures, messy play area, building stations, a climbing frame, sensory boards and a reading tepee.

          This funding will enable us to deliver a sustainable infrastructure that will benefit the whole school for years to come. We want to create well-designed, durable resources so that the investment continues to improve wellbeing, inclusion, learning and community connection well into the future.

One of the bits of East Ham with the least greenery. The kids really deserve this sensory space x.

Wow! I loved this project honestly this will help children to balance their sense of touch and especially those children will have more advantages who have more sensory cravings.
