Bendigo Special Developmental School Floor Plan
This is the overall layout of Bendigo Special Developmental School, showing the locations of all our classrooms and facilities.
Classrooms
Each classroom has a fantastic student/teacher ratio, within each classroom there is one teacher and at least one education support staffmember. These teams work together to promote an optimum learning environment, allowing each student to progress within their own Individualised Learning Plan.

Our STEAM room provides the opportunity for students to engage in exciting elements of Science, Technologies, Engineering, the Arts and Mathematics. During STEAM students get to:
-
- Program robots to navigate mazes
- Observe the lifecycles of different animals
- Learn about natural disasters
- Develop amazing artwork
- And much more!
Library
Swimming/Hydrotherapy pool
Swimming extends student water awareness and stroke development, whilst Hydrotherapy extends the benefits of physiotherapy for physically disabled students. Warm water (32- 34 degrees celsius) improves circulation and induces muscular relaxation. Our students really enjoy and relax in the water.
Playgrounds
There are separate playground areas suitable to abilities and ages. Staff members supervise these areas at all times ensuring optimal safety for all students. The playgrounds consist of trampolines, playground equipment, basketball ring, cricket net, trikes and scooters, sandpits and swings.
