Description: Want to bring some joy into the hearts of others? This is just what you will do when you work alongside these children with, and without, special needs by your enthusiasm and fun! You will be having a great time colouring, drawing, singing songs, playing games, reading and writing and then watching for the gorgeous smiles on their faces as you entertain them!

*What the project does and why it needs you!
The 'resource room' in this local school was inaugurated in 2004 with the aim of allowing for inclusive education of children with special needs. The project believes passionately that all children, whether they have disabilities or not should be educated in the same community and should not be segregated. With your help the children will learn through playing, drawing, colouring, singing and dancing whilst having lots of fun!

*What you'll be doing
You will be working with children who have a range of learning difficulties and helping them to learn through play, reading, writing, art and craft, singing songs. You will also be involved in hobby classes for the children of the school in the afternoon.
