There are five classrooms and administration spread across four houses set in a nearly 3,000 m2 garden that is fully fenced for safe outdoor exploration. The curriculum covers practical life, sensory, language, mathematics, and cultural studies, supported by on-site therapists (psychologist and occupational therapist).
