Burntwood Elementary School offers a place for students to escape, at least temporarily

Last night's School District of Mystery Lake board meeting took place at Burntwood Elementary School.

 

The meeting started with a presentation from two Burntwood junior high students in the school's sensory room.

 

The presentation included information about different fundraisers, such as Movember and chocolate milk sales, as well as various programs and events at the school like their breakfast program and We Day.

 

The sensory room itself is relatively new to the school. It's a place for students to go when they need a break from the regular structure of the classroom.

 

The room features a tent, multiple sensory boards, various balls and blankets.

 

Burntwood vice-principal Jaynie Burnell added that they're looking to add an exercise bike or treadmill to the room if anyone wants to make a donation.
