About Us
Mitchell House is an Education Authority Belfast Region co-educational special school for children with physical disabilities. Most of our students have an associated learning difficulty to some degree.
It was a busy week, I love getting to walk with my friends. I’ve worked hard at being able to walk alongside wheelchairs. Electric ones were a bit scary at the start but now I’m ok with them 💜
Can you believe, one whole year of being in Mitchell House 🎉 The second picture is me on the neighbours wall exactly on year apart 💜
Half term is over! I’m super excited to see all my chums again tomorrow, I miss everyone when school is off! It wasn’t all bad though, I got out for lunch, coffee and round the shops - of course I was the best girl 💜
Another week done ✅ It’s been a busy one for me, here are some pictures to show you some things I’ve been doing.
I was very excited this week, one of my chums who was really unsure of me when I first came into school was brave enough to brush me this week 🎉 I’ve been working hard on building their confidence - my humans in Team Raia tell me that’s what I’m good at 💜
I had a fab visit to @mencapni this week 🎉 I met lots of new little friends, mummy told me a was a very good girl and stayed super calm. I also met new ‘big’ friends who gave me such a warm welcome and good ear scratches too.
I was so happy to welcome some VIPs to school to celebrate our @nurtureuk award 🎉 it was a fun day of celebrations! Thanks so much to our guests from @educationauthority, @de_northern_ireland and our other partners for all the cuddles!
I had to listen while Mummy told SO many stories about me, but I have to say there were all true! I’ve been a big part of the Nurture journey and I’m so proud we got the award 🥳
