Special Schools & Sensory Gardens
School grounds, master plans, landscape design
Jeavons Landscape Architects are known for our high quality work in special schools and special developmental schools, and for the design of sensory gardens, accessible and inclusive spaces, therapeutic environments, and outdoor areas in residential units and aged care.
The scope of our work ranges from site planning and master plans for new schools and whole sites, as well as redevelopments and upgrades of existing school grounds, specific spaces, play areas and sensory gardens.
Our design solutions engage children with a range of physical and intellectual abilities, individual special needs, varying social skills and levels of sensory integration, including children on the autism spectrum.

Sensory Gardens
These spaces are purposefully designed to heighten the sensory experiences of children and adults. We work with therapists and other staff to create artistic and beautiful spaces with texture, colours, scent and sounds, but also spatial variety, thermal properties and movement. We aim to engage children in a playful way that builds on their strengths and provides staff with a setting that aids communication, learning and the development of social skills.

Integrated Design & Masterplanning
Jeavons Landscape Architects have collaborated with teachers and architects on many special school developments, including projects on greenfields sites as well as BER projects, redevelopments and upgrades, in rural and urban schools.
Our involvement in the early stages of site planning establishes the optimum relationship between indoor and outdoor spaces, for circulation, for play and for learning. Refer to the Education page for more information on our approach to design in educational settings and the design process.
