Wednesday, April 1st - equipment

Today, I'm impressed by all equipment, which Fjordskolen have and can use to make moving and excercising of children easier and more comfortable.

First, I participated with Nasir in short bike trip. He has paresis in his leg, so he wouldn't be able to ride. But he as a special bike in which he can use his arms.
In the school in the hall there is a lot of bikes. Each of them are doffernet and adapted to each pupils.













Then I was with one of physiotherapist in the swimming-pool. It was nice to see:

• adjustable bottom of the swimming-pool
• special sling to carry children from dressing room to the swimming-pool
• good equipment to use in swimming-pool
  

And on the end Louise showed all equipment which they have in basement. There was a lot of them. I'm impressed by this. But it's perfect, I think. Because therapists can match and choose the best one for each student.

And the most important sentence which Louise said today:
IN DENMARK, THERE IS VERY IMPORTANT TO ALL HANDICCAPED CHILDREN HAD AND WERE TREATED LIKE THE OTHER, HEALTHY.
And today, I really saw it. All this equipment, all this therapy and efforts aim to make and ensure their life as easy as possible.
