Fridays are for dressing up! Have a fantastic weekend, everyone! ✨

Every student processes the world differently. To help autistic students truly thrive, we have to understand their unique learning styles, communication needs, and how they experience the school environment. Our full-day course is specifically designed for teachers, support staff, and school leaders who are committed to creating an inclusive, supportive space.

What we’ll cover:
🧠 Information processing & managing anxiety
🗣️ Enhancing receptive and expressive communication
🎒 Navigating sensory processing differences
📅 The power of routines for active engagement

Participants in the course will learn how to choose and use strategies and practical supports related to these considerations for their that can be incorporated in their classrooms.

Today, our students jumped on a coach and headed into the city for an incredible musical excursion to the Melbourne Recital Centre. We were completely immersed in a fantastic, relaxed performance by the amazing Cool Out Sun 🥁🙌

A massive thank you to Belinda from Melbourne Recital Centre for inviting us along for such a memorable experience.

There's nothing quite like a city adventure, especially when it includes soaking in the art at the National Gallery of Victoria! 🎨🖼️

What a day! 🏉 Our Outdoor Classroom students enjoyed an exciting excursion to The Huddle at North Melbourne FC today.

The day was packed with hands-on learning and creativity. Students built Athlete Profiles in the high-tech stadium simulator, used iPads to guide the Sphero balls to kick goals and built incredible LEGO masterpieces. The energy continued onto the indoor courts and we topped it all off by kicking the footy on the official training oval.

A massive thank you to Amy and her team for hosting us and being so wonderful with our students, it was a day to remember! 🌟
