School Holiday Intensives
Sound Connections offer various programs that focus on children’s social interaction skills and communication goals. We run these programs either one-on-one or in a small group environment.
Short blocks of intensive therapy are found to generate strong positive outcomes for children and their families and are especially useful if your family is busy over the school term.
All of our programs are designed to be fun and interactive so your child won’t feel like they’re in therapy.
