Our unique active learning workshops unite STEM with dance, and are delivered in
partnership with Flamingo Chicks. They are delivered in special needs schools,
community settings, children’s hospices and hospitals across the UK. “Sensory
Science workshops give all children the chance to explore through sensory
learning. All too often disabled children are overlooked in this area, with
people assuming they will be unable to participate. Yet actually science has a
great appeal – particularly when applied practically, as children can begin to
learn there is no right or wrong when exploring and things can go wrong, a
valuable life skill which special needs children often have difficulty with in
life. It can even offer a viable career path for some of our children. All
special needs students can benefit from Sensory Science.” Jessica Butler,
