DSQ Kids is an opportunity for primary school aged children to meet new friends their age, get active and develop social skills in a new environment.
If you have a child aged 5-11 with Down syndrome and would like them to be a part of a group all about having fun, with opportunities to develop confidence and build independence, then this is for them.
Our Occupational Therapist has designed a dedicated, specialised therapy-based program of indoor and outdoor activities that aims to work on and improve things such as co-ordination, muscle building, visual tracking and fine motor skills. Being in a group environment also allows an opportunity for free play to catch up with friends, make new ones and to develop important social skills.
