This work has supported 70 pupils with additional needs to access movement in a meaningful, engaging and inclusive way.
Thank you, Ella, for your dedication and the impact you’ve made across our Borough.
If you’d like to engage further, weekly Sensory Movement sessions run in Melton every Thursday.

☀️ With schools closing around the county due to extreme temperatures, we’d like to remind everyone of the dangers of messing about near water.
One push too hard, one slip on the edge of the bank, one trip or fall is all it takes to find yourself in serious danger in the water.
Please look out for each other, stay aware of the risks, and enjoy your time around the water safely.
Stay safe, stay cool, and make smart choices. 💙
