The SPOT Program

The SPOT (Speech Pathology & Occupational Therapy) program is also run across both campuses by our Speech Pathologist and Occupational Therapist. The program is run for selected grade prep student and focuses on a combination of skills important for success at school including basic language concepts and gross motor skills.  Basic concepts are required for language development and overall learning. A child is required to understand a specific concept in order to follow a direction and complete the task. Gross motor skills are also an essential skill for student development; they stabilise and control movements of the body providing a platform to perform fine motor task with ease.  Gross motor activities were also incorporated into the program to support students learning of the basic concepts.
