Special Classes

On 4th May 2007, eight boys from Orleans Park School came to the RGA for the first of our special try-out sessions for children with disabilities.

The boys had varying levels of social and learning disabilities and find their normal PE classes somewhat intimidating.

One child was wheelchair bound and the gym was certainly a positive environment for him. It was a great success and further classes are planned.

The RGA is also conducting a class with Oakland School - a school specialising in children with special needs.
