Developmental Supports

What a cracking day!
Started with a nice walk in Nuriootpa and a morning chat. Some clients noticed some community notices and we discussed these.

Followed by a visit to Tutti Arts Barossa where we were able to have a go at mosaics while others enjoyed breaking the tiles up for others to use in their art works.
Being part of the community involves engaging in other services programs and supporting clients to connect with broader services which ultimately supports clients to reach their life aspirations.

And lastly, we stopped at Barossa Campus for a tour and to learn about the space and how it is used for people who are studying through Tafe, University or other training organisations to provide a calm, relaxed study environment. And a group game to finish the day head bands, which is way harder than I remember.

A beautiful morning for a 6.2 km hike 🥾 we will definitely have tired legs after
8402 steps we did!

We spotted 5 koalas 🐨 to many birds 🦜to count and heard lots of frogs 🐸.

And we've set the goal to train and complete the Mount Lofty hike!

Thoughtful planning takes time to consider clients budgets, interests and stamina.
Today is a perfect example of how learning from our skills group supported clients to plan, budget and engage in a packed day out.
First $7.50 game of bowling, followed by a Foodland picnic lunch, games of UNO followed by a movie and you guessed it Foodland snacks.
The only fail was we couldn't find somewhere to fill up our water bottles.
Next adventure we will include water bottle top up spots.

What's better then an impromptu games day!
The thunderstorm may have stopped us heading out today but it created so many opportunities to try new things.

We pushed ourselves to sit outside our comfort zone throughout the day, but it was worth it for the personal growth, team building, and laughs!

Another great day at skills group.
Unpacking different forms of communication, and identifying our individual preferences for communication.
A great take away was how different it can be depending on mood, environment, the communication partner, to name a few!

To extend on this we had a fun game of charades in the afternoon.
We also managed to squeeze in games, making dog biscuits and a walk around town!

Such a great day developing our teamwork skills, trying different activities and showcasing our areas of strengths. Enjoy the pictures and videos ( can you spot the cow impression?) 🐄 ☺️
