My overall experience of St. Giles was extremely positive. Initially it was scary, I didn’t know what to expect. All I knew was that I was teaching children with a variety of disabilities. However as my nerves died my enthusiasm grew. It was rewarding to see such happy and engaged kids. Straight off we outlined that we weren’t teachers and we were there to have fun, and in this we succeeded! Some of them were incredibly creative, sociable and out and out hilarious. The time I spent with the children was good for me as well as them; it really put things into perspective. The attitudes of these children majorly influenced me and I found myself happier and a lot less stressed throughout the week.
