Holiday Groups

Hand Skills Group

Does your child:

• Tire easily when writing or cutting?
• Have trouble with dressing for example with buttons or zippers?
• Find it difficult to concentrate and maintain attention?
• Need help to open and close lunch boxes and drink bottles?
• Have poor motor planning skills?
• Appear uncoordinated and clumsy?

Developing hand skills is especially important for children about to start school or just starting school. The Hand Skills group involves a range of gross and fine motor activities, which are planned to support your child’s individual needs.

This group is currently not being delivered.
