PRESS RELEASE: Brisbane Mum Awarded at Sydney Disability Expo for innovative product

Latest Press Release

Last night at the highly acclaimed Source Kids Disability Expo, held at the ICC Sydney International Convention and Exhibition Centre Australian, start up ‘MyBurrow®’ was awarded the ‘Innovation award.’ MyBurrow® is a creation of Brisbane mum and special needs teacher, Dimitra Baveas.
Having seen the impact of occupational therapy tools on learning in a clinical environment, it became clear to Special Education teacher Dimitra Baveas that there needed to be a way to incorporate clinical therapy into all learning environments. “I realised that there was a gap in the ability to transfer the teaching and learning from a clinical situation into a classroom situation,” Ms Baveas said. MyBurrow® was developed to aid children and adults struggling because of issues with self-regulation, anxiety and sensory stimulation and is particularly useful for people with social or communication issues, delayed motor skills or trouble with concentration and attention.
MyBurrow® has the potential to help individuals in a wide variety of special and mainstream environments and is particularly useful to promote inclusion. Teaming up with Helena Smith (Education Consultant), MyBurrow® has created a variety of freely accessible resources including behaviour guides, lesson plans, sample support plans and more.
Recognition from Source Kids is highly regarded as this organisation has served as a primary platform for information and support to families since NDIS kicked off in 2013. Dimitra is a single mother who has taught in Queensland for over 20 years. She is a passionate advocate for her students and their families.
