We have just returned from a weekend of bike riding in the rain at Bright, 65k’s over two days a great effort from the boys. We have an upcoming camping trip in Bright as well as some day trips for riding and raft building. We are boxing, bowling and riding on a weekly basis. More details to follow for upcoming activities.

BOYS BEING BOYS!
Over the past few weeks we have been:

🥊 Boxing
🎳 Bowling
🚵 Mountain bike riding
🤸 Bounce trampoline sessions
🔥 Bush cooking and outdoor adventures
🚗 Building independence through life skills and learner driver licence support

These experiences are about so much more than having fun. Every activity helps develop resilience, teamwork, communication, confidence, independence, and the practical skills needed for everyday life.

A very special thank you goes to Stu from Adrenaline Boxing & Conditioning for generously sharing his time, knowledge, and passion with our participants. Stu has created an inclusive and supportive environment where everyone feels welcome, encouraged, and empowered to achieve their personal best. Your commitment to our young people is genuinely appreciated, and we are incredibly grateful for your ongoing support.

At McGheeAbility, we believe every young person deserves opportunities to grow, connect, and discover what they’re capable of. Watching these young men step outside their comfort zones, encourage one another, and celebrate each other’s achievements is exactly what community is all about.

Here’s to many more adventures, new skills, and unforgettable memories! Just hoping for a wee bit more snow ⛄️!

Just want to say a huge congratulations to Daltyn who has his NSW L’s. We have been working on this for the last few weeks and he successfully completed his test, a huge achievement, well done Daltyn.

Huge day in Melbourne for John, Kaleb, Daltyn, Mykal and Lewis, 6:50am train then all day at Comic Con finishing the day off at the Melbourne Sea life aquarium. Comic Con was massive with all the boys coping really well with the large crowds and noisy environment, love doing these trips with such a great group of people. Next trip will hopefully be an overnight camp in Bright with a day trip to the snow and a big rail trail bike ride.

School holiday activities. Recently, we have been relying on public transport to travel throughout Albury Wodonga and Culcairn. (Fortunately, bus services are currently free). Our excursions have involved using buses and trains, adhering to schedules, finding seating on crowded trains and exploring Morgans lookout, accompanied by a snack of sausages!

Huge weekend, with an amazing group of young men. We travelled to Harrietville staying overnight at Mountain View Retreat (Huge thanks to Fi & Noel for being so welcoming and supportive). Archery, cooking, camp fire with an amazing damper, little bit of bike riding, raft building, canoeing and lots of laughs.
A fantastic time for boys to be boys and enjoy the outdoors.
Can’t wait for future trips with a focus on longer bike rides, snow trips and hopefully a longer trip to the beach.
