We had a very busy and eventful half term. During half terms and during the school holidays the centre is especially busy and we are all buzzing with ideas, new solutions and breakthroughs. Children come from all over the country and from abroad. We all, children and staff are listening to each others stories, discussing vital issues relevant to our lives and we all work soo extremely hard to find our hidden strengths and find some unexplored solutions.
Amongst the many we had some beautiful solutions, which I would like to share with you to keep you inspired.
As we had our 10th anniversary this October the children felt especially fired up to do their best as they thought this would be the best present they could give to Professor Petö, Dr. Hári ♥ and for themselves to try their hardest.Please watch the videos of two incredible boys who defied the odds and made a major breakthrough. Please forgive me about the quality, as these films are made right in the middle of our work and they were just made for us and for the parents to see. Our lovely Trevor our IT manager kindly reduced the size of the videos and contributed his time to make it available to you all. On one of the films there is a song, which was the choice of the boy who is, walking first time on his own with monopod sticks and wanted the song to be recorded. The boy who is walking outside learnt to take a few independent steps inside the centre in the summer, but had never made so many consistent safe steps and especially not outside! These two boys accomplished their desires for the first time in their lives. Please send them a quiet loving message from your hearts. They will receive them without a doubt. Thank you. Keep LIVING, LOVING and making a difference. http://www.szathmarytc.com/media/joel_30_10_08.wmv

So proud of both the boys and I am only Mum to one! The sheer effort these children put in is only matched by the dedication of the conductors at this centre and all others. Long live conductive education!
Thank you for keeping our hopes alive. All we want for our children is for them to reach their potential - whatever that might be. With centres such as the New Forest we get that chance.
