Little Ripples Kids Therapy

27/01/2023

Please keep in mind carpark closures and allow extra time before sessions. The little athletics families who usually use that car park will need to park elsewhere so there will likely be noticeably less car parks over the next few weeks. Please allow extra time. You can always go for a swim yourselves before your session if you arrive early

Due to the ongoing Major Road upgrades on Aitken Blvd, our Sprint Car Park will be closed from Tuesday 31 January to 19 February. A temporary Car Park has been made available next to our main car park on Central Park Ave. (refer to the map) Please be mindful of potential delays when arriving for Group Fitness and Swim School classes.

Just an update regarding our upcoming closure over the Christmas/New Year period!

We will be taking some time off at the end of this year to spend time with family. We will be closing at close of business on Friday the 23rd December and will be resuming sessions on Saturday January 7th.

We are looking forward to recharging our batteries and getting ready to return to an exciting 2023!

Today is International Day of People with Disability! This is an annual event which aims to "increase public awareness, understanding and acceptance of people with disability and celebrate their achievements and contributions"

We love each and every child we work with and we love seeing them smash their goals, no matter what diagnosis they may have.

Some of you may have noticed that we have now updated our facebook and instagram pages with our new name. Along with this we are also changing our email address. Our new email address is littlerippleskids@outlook.com. Our phone number remains the same.

We will continue to monitor the Splash Ability email address for a period of time so do not worry if you are still using our old email address.

We are also in the final stages of developing a website which we are hoping will go live in the next few weeks. This will be another way of contacting us and we are so excited to share our hard work with you all!

We are very excited to announce that our new name will be 'Little Ripples Kids Therapy'. We hope you love this new name as much as we do!

We will be making the transition gradually over the next few weeks and will be slowly updating our social media accounts and contact details to reflect our new name.

Sessions will continue as usual throughout this transition and we are happy to answer any questions or concerns anyone has.

Over the next couple of weeks we will have a series of announcements to make. The first is the biggest and that is that we will be changing our name! We have been working hard to find a new name and we hope you will love the new name as much as we do!

We will be unveiling our new name and logo later on this week. Stay tuned! We can't wait to share it with you all!

October 24-30th is OT Week! We love everything that OT encompasses and are proud of the work we do. The theme this year is "What OT means to me"

This is what our OT Mel says OT means to her:
"OT has given me the opportunity and privilege to be able to help children achieve their goals and feel a sense of pride and accomplishment in themselves. Everyone deserves an opportunity to do their best and OT allows me to see that every day."

We have been working hard in the background working on a few big changes which we are excited to be announcing soon.

Keep an eye on our Facebook and Instagram pages as we announce these changes and new additions over the next few weeks.



There are a lot of changes coming so please bear with us if we take a little longer than usual to respond to calls, messages or emails

Please allow extra time when planning your drive to sessions in Craigieburn

From 8pm Sunday 14 August to 5am Wednesday 21 September the southbound lanes of Aitken Blvd from Central Park Avenue to Craigieburn Junction will be closed.

Please allow extra travel time when attending Splash due to increase traffic in roads surrounding the facility and carparks.

Our phone service has been disrupted over recent days. We are working to sort this out but please be patient with us if we are taking longer than usual to respond to you (or not responding at all). If you have not heard from us within a couple of days please try again because your message/call may not have been received.
We are so sorry for any inconvenience this may cause!

Today is World Autism Awareness Day! So many of the wonderful children we work with have Autism and we love supporting each and every one of them to achieve their goals. A person with Autism is so much more than just their diagnosis and we are proud to be able to work with such a wonderful group of little humans ❤️

Some of you may have noticed that our logo has changed and I want to share with you what the logo represents.

The dolphin was chosen for our original logo because each dolphin is unique and with their own personality & identity within their pod- just like us. We are all individuals but together we make a community and it is more beautiful because of our differences.

The water splash not only represents our business name but the splash in our new logo also forms the dolphins tail. This symbolises the way in which water (and the therapeutic benefits it brings) can help us to achieve our goals- just as the dolphin is using the tail to leap from the water we want to help our children make their own leaps.

Our dolphin is confident and determined to take the leap to reach a goal, and this is what we want to instil our children and their families.

Will you take the leap with us?

Update on reopening: We will be commencing therapy from Mid-late March! We are in the process of contacting our existing and waitlisted families to book appointments in.
Please be patient with us while we do this. And if you have any questions please don't hesitate to contact us.
We are excited to be back in the water with you all very soon!
