Now the toilets are nearly done we are going to focus on rebuilding our funds and supporting physio sessions for the kids .
Ps Desmond and family are doing well in their home.

After 18 months of additional fundraising, battling rising building costs our toilets are nearly finished. Our wonderful school will now have boys, and girls toilets and a changing table. Massive thanks to everyone who supported this work.
It's been an expensive job but worth it

The sensory room is a hit. The children love the balance items, the water & sensory play. But Perez is less happy with everyone in his space & using his lights. #School #education4all #SEND #downssyndrome #edutwitter https://t.co/UHrcC0uGoO

[claudia&caitlinbuildaschool @claudiacaitlyn1]

We went back last night to visit Desmond and his family. The boys room & the 3 end rooms of the house will need to come down and be rebuilt. We have left some food and cash for a mattress for the boys. Desmond was as always very pleased to see us.

[claudia&caitlinbuildaschool @claudiacaitlyn1]

Thanks to everyone's support we have been able to go back to 11 of our most needy families . Sarah her mum and her grandmother receive support from the church. But we were pleased to be able to take them some extra funds. Xx

[claudia&caitlinbuildaschool @claudiacaitlyn1]
