Month of May

Throughout the month of May, I became more involved in activities with my friends and enjoyed exploring a wide range of new experiences. One of the highlights was learning about different styles of music and cultural dance from across the Pacific Islands and beyond. I discovered how each culture expresses itself uniquely through movement and rhythm, such as the fast-paced drumming and energetic dancing of the Cook Islands compared to the slower, more graceful style of Tahitian music and dance. I also stepped into the exciting world of K-pop, where I enjoyed the upbeat music, energetic choreography, and vibrant atmosphere. During another session, I practiced my box step dance in preparation for our upcoming ball. I enjoyed it and had a big smile on my face.

I loved spending time in my Girls group session, where we relaxed together with shoulder massages and hair brushing. Quiet reading time also became one of my favourite parts of the month because it gave me a chance to relax and feel calm. Another memorable experience was having a lovely tea party with the girls, which was nice to have that connection. 

During sensory sessions, I enjoyed building with colourful bricks while sitting in a darkened room lit up with bright, colourful lights, creating a peaceful and soothing environment that helped me feel comfortable. 

May truly felt like a joyful and rewarding month that I will always look back on with a smile. - TR
