THE OAK CENTRE

The goal of the Oak Centre is to support each student to achieve to their potential. For some students this simply means providing a safe and relaxing environment that they have ready access to whenever they need to de-stress. Other students can require higher levels of support so they may attend the Oak Centre for several classes a day for both relaxation and social skills development.
