  • Speech Therapy
  • Speech therapists conduct professional evaluations for children and provide training in speech, language, articulation, listening and voice for children in need.

  • Occupational Therapy and Physiotherapy
  • We conduct professional assessments and provide customized occupational therapy and physiotherapy based on the individual needs of each student.

  • Social workers provide parents with educational, counselling and support services. Talks and sharing sessions are also organized for parents to enhance their parenting knowledge and skills.

$148 annually (as stipulated by the Social Welfare Department)

How to Apply

To apply for services, children must be assessed by a Child Assessment Centre under the Department of Health or by a qualified specialist, such as a paediatrician, clinical psychologist, or educational psychologist. These children are then referred to the Central Referral System for Rehabilitation Services. This referral process is typically handled by medical social workers or Integrated Family Services Centres. The Social Welfare Department operates this system and places children on a waitlist for services.

How to Terminate

By written notice to Centre-in-charge 1 month in advance
