Shooting Star Children's Hospices

A therapeutic day for siblings of our supported children.

Shooting Star House

It's that time of year again where we would like to borrow the Siblings (5+, including teens!) of children who are currently receiving our support for the day at Shooting Star House!Please drop off between 9.30am and 10am so we can start the day promptly. Pick up is at 3.30pm.Our siblings’ days help children find comfort in being with other siblings and a chance to make some new friends or meet up with ones they have met before. This half term's theme is self-expression in the real world and virtual worlds.Amongst several therapeutic activities, we will use fun gaming and music technology to TECH-spress ourselves as well as coming back to the "real" world for some pool games in the hydrotherapy pool and a fun movement workshop! Our music therapist will teach us how to make our own music using some exciting "garage band" software and we will be visited by Gamerheads the traveling game company to play the latest games and explore some new technology. Please note all games will be age appropriate and supervised at all time. Our day will start by exploring some ways in which we can stay safe when exploring the virtual word.Activities are supported by our team of therapists to ensure we give siblings the emotional support they need. Please dont hesitate to contact us if you have any questions about the therapeutic activites throughout the day.Kit list<ul><li>swimmers and a towel</li><li>waterproof coat</li><li>water bottle</li><li>packed lunch/last night’s dinner in a Tupperware..(NO NUTS or KIWI PLEASE)</li><li>any medicines in a named bag and handed to staff on arrival</li></ul>We try to encourage children to be independent and say goodbye in reception.
