'Sunshine' - the new name for our first class in St Vincent

Susu, the class teacher, and Andi [a volunteer nurse from room 1b], snoezeling with the class in the snoezelen!


Yes! We finally have a name for our first class in St Vincent - Sunshine!
'Sunshine' was opened for the children who have graduated from our school HaMaayan.
It really is a 'sunshine' for the children, who take part in jakuzzi, snoezelen, dog therapy,story-time, and art therapy every week.
