SEND group for children with Special Educational Needs at Harlow Town Park, based in the learning centre next to Spurriers House Cafe. Funded by Active Essex for 85% children entitled to Benefits Based free school meals. We have 2 spaces a day for low income families and are required by Active Essex to request a Wonde code (which the school will issue) if in doubt please call Tara 07985 751059 or email rootstowellbeing@gmail.com as without this we cannot accept the booking. We are here to help you through the process if unsure

We have a high ratio of team members to children and make this a smaller group so as we can offer care, support and nurture. We are open earlier for drop offs if your child would benefit from extra support and some 'quiet time'

We will be running a range of Creative Activities, Physical and sensory play and games. Weather permitting we will be having some time outdoors in the park and to see the animals at pets corner, we tailor activities to the needs of the children and sessions are led by a registered Occupational Therapist.

Sessions include a hot meal, healthy snacks and drinks and all activities as part of these Essex ActiVate sessions

These sessions are for SEND children and if it is your child's first booking we will request a bit more information from you, without this your booking is not confirmed so please ensure you put correct email / phone number. We are an inclusive organisation and the sessions are supportive, inclusive and we support your child's physical, emotional, mental and cognitive health
