Music and Sound Beam
Sound Beam is a ‘touch free’ device which uses sensor technology to translate body movement into music and sound. In education and therapy, this unique creative and expressive medium is widely recognized as ‘must-have’ technology.
Occupational Therapy
Also our occupational therapy program includes a workshop for recycling paper and the creation of attractive cards. These are sold to visitors and the children sell them occasionally in the village to the passing pilgrims.
At least once a month we have a Coffee House, which is run by our kids. They love participating in this activity as waiters or cashiers (depending on which level they are on), because it gives them a feeling of worth – that they are able to accomplish a task. At the end of the activity, they each also choose what drink they would like. And from time to time with Sister Susan, the kids prepare a fruit salad or bake a cake.

Art Therapy and Illustrated Stories
Story telling is also in stages. The children are given the opportunity to feel, hear and see the story. The story is also animated with finger puppets, regular puppets and special musical instruments, and also colourful pictures and photographs.
