It gives each student the chance to work closely with our incredible allied health team – including speech pathologists, occupational therapists and other specialists,in a dedicated program that every child we be a part of every week. The best part is, ACE is more than therapy sessions.

What makes ACE special?

• Personalised support: Every child is assessed in fun and engaging ways, using both favourite and more challenging activities. This helps our team understand each student’s strengths and the areas where they need a little extra support.
  
  

• Tailored plans: From these sessions, individual support plans are created, designed to meet each child right at their point of need.
  
  

• Learning through fun: Children are motivated and engaged while gently stretching their skills, making every session positive and purposeful.
  
  

• Coaching for staff: Teachers and education support staff join the sessions too. Our allied health professionals model strategies, share insights, and give live feedback so that the approaches can flow straight into the classroom.
