Ofarim School August 2016 Report

Occupational Therapy Room
Occupational Therapy Room

The last few month were very exciting in Ofarim school being the end of the school year.

To begin with, we celebrated the opening of our new occupational therapy room which will be used for one on one sessions of kids and teacher (room picture further down in the report).

Our teaching methods call for a lot of outdoor and physical activities.Therefore We initiated many great activities that involve  interaction between the children, teachers and volunteers that are constantly coming in our doors. Volunteers are coming to give hand, learn our methods, and  get experience with the children.

To list some of our activities (associated pictures below):

  • Preparing the school garden for next school year
  • Outdoor day in Haifa 
  • Picking pumpkins with parents as part of the end of the year activities
  • End of the year exciting party with the parents at school 
  • Touch and feel activity with music 

We are preparing ourselves for the next year opening day. Haifa city mayor will come to our school on September 9th for a ceremony and everybody is invited (invitation can be seen in our website).

For next year our greatest challenge is to continue the development of our iPad classroom which has been a great success getting many skills developed in our children. Our goal is to equipped the room with 25 iPads to enable a tabled for each kid in school that will make it part of our daily teaching methods.

With your help and the help of the global community donations we were able to make good progress in our classrooms and in the school facility and we appreciate it very much.

Thank you all for great support
