We would like to open the school in September 2011, so we need all your support NOW to make this dream come true. As the Special Care Centre will be financed by the community, it is also intended to be a place which non-students and their families can use to improve their skills and also benefit from individual, group or family counseling. Visitors and members of the Community at large will thus be able to use the numerous facilities that will be provided by the school: auditorium, gymnasium, multipurpose area, hydrotherapy pool, clinic, library, school shop, playground, gardens, etc. For any comments and additional listings please email us at This e-mail address is being protected from spambots.
