Dorridge Primary School prides itself on providing a nurturing environment, where children can develop into confident young people with a real thirst for learning. Part of this ethos is to cater for children with hypo or hypersensitivity, creating a sanctuary where students can go when they need a calm moment away from the hustle and bustle of a busy school.
With limited resources, the teachers at the school wanted to create a sensory room which was an area where students could feel both secure and stimulated. The room needed to be multi-purpose, bringing the calming elements of nature into the space, but retaining space for relaxation, play and any future sensory items. Cleanability was also a priority as the school therapy dog spends time with the children in the room.
Altro Whiterock Satins in colour Promenade was selected to vary the mood to stimulate or soothe, and Altro Whiterock Digiclad (Custom) with a printed forest theme brings biophilia into the space.
“Our thoughts with this room are to bring all the calming elements of nature into this space and provide a peaceful multi-use environment. This has been achieved with the materials we selected.”
