Look at what we can do
MOVE- Standing and Walking
During our daily activities we try to pack as many opportunities to use MOVE. The children have been using MOVE during the different activities we do such as working on our vision to look and concentrate where we are going as we walk around the classroom or school. Working with the vision support team and the physiotherapist aswell.
