Scenario of a Day

Our Therapeutic Recreational Activity program offers a unique approach that combines various activities to help participants develop essential life skills in a practical and engaging way.

Imagine a day where…

  • You start your day with our Social Skills Class, where you’ll collaborate with teammates to plan the day’s schedule, manage time efficiently, and communicate effectively.
  • With your plan in place, move on to our Money Management Session. Here, you’ll learn essential budgeting skills, practice recognizing different denominations, and calculate change, all of which you’ll immediately apply during a practical shopping activity.
  • Once you’ve gathered your ingredients, it’s time for the Cooking Class. Prepare a delicious meal while enhancing fine motor skills, applying functional math, and practising turn-taking and teamwork.
  • End your day with Art and Music Therapy, where engaging activities will help develop your listening skills, attention span, fine motor skills, and imagination.
