Arlie’s Shed Weekly Update!

The last two weeks have flown by and we can hardly believe it’s Christmas already! As we reflect on this incredible year, we are filled with gratitude for our incredible participants, our dedicated workers (A massive thank you to you all!), and our wonderful new shed, we’ve settled in perfectly. It has truly been a bustling year and we want to extend a heartfelt thank you to our amazing community- every one of you is an amazing human and beautifully unique.

What better way to conclude the year than with a week long celebration? From unforgettable adventures to the beach, bowling and Aussie World, to festive Christmas cooking and crafts, we’ve packed so much fun into this holiday season. Our sensational end-of-year party was the highlight, featuring the incredible band Shed Zeppelin (a big thank you to the good vibrations, can’t wait to have you back next year!), who rocked the stage. Delicious food from Big Dog BBQ filled our plates as we laughed, danced and enjoyed each other's company. Perfectly ending our year.

As we prepare to welcome the new year, we look forward to continuing our journey together. In the meantime, we wish you all a Merry Christmas and a wonderful New Year! Let’s embrace the opportunities ahead and make 2026 an even more amazing year.

Warm regards,
The Arlie’s Shed Team

We even made lunchbox pizzas and tasty fruit smoothies. Participants practiced valuable skills such as list making, ingredient shopping, and food prep.

In woodworking, we cleaned up our area in preparation for a big launch next year. We’re also cutting more chopping boards, which are in high demand.

Arts, Crafts, and Learning
This week, we made pinecone Christmas trees and decorations and completed centerpieces for our Christmas party. Participants enjoyed games, karaoke, and as always dancing. Plenty of dancing, blending fun with creativity.

Thursday Social
For our Thursday social, we enjoyed a wonderful day at Baroon Dam in Maleny, swimming, sports, bushwalking and having a BBQ lunch while staying sun smart.

Arlie’s Shed Weekly Update!

This week, we celebrated Ryley’s birthday, a wonderful little party that reminded us all how quickly the year has flown by - it's hard to believe it’s already the 1st of December!

Woodworking & Trades
In our woodworking area, we’ve been busy utilising the slab master to prep camphor laurel for beautiful cutting boards. We also dedicated time to cutting more wood to enhance our garden area.

Arts, Crafts and Learning
Our arts and crafts sessions have been buzzing with festive creativity. This week, participants made Christmas ornaments, wreaths and even sewed Christmas stockings for both their homes and our shop. We embraced the holiday spirit with colourful decorations while enjoying games, pool, card games, and lively karaoke, making it a week filled with laughter and fun.

Thursday Social
For our Thursday social outing, we ventured to Rainbow Beach, where we enjoyed a refreshing swim and a delicious BBQ lunch. Everyone made sure to keep sun smart throughout the day and we had a fantastic time walking along the sandy shores and playing in the park.

Cooking
In the kitchen this week, we prepared some delicious homemade meals, including chicken fried rice, chicken stroganoff and spaghetti and meatballs. For afternoon tea, we created delightful reindeer cupcakes and bliss balls, adding a festive touch to our treats! Participants practiced valuable skills like list-making, shopping for ingredients, meal preparation, knife skills and money handling.

Support in Employment
Our Op Shop is bustling as we sort and decorate for the Christmas season. Additionally, Sam and Jordan’s car detailing service is thriving! With Christmas approaching, now is the perfect time to book an appointment for a thorough car clean.

Gardening
We also dedicated time to getting out in community through our gardening efforts. Our team participated in a job where we focused on mowing, whipper snipping, pruning, weeding and blowing leaves to keep the their area tidy. We gathered potting mix and picked up donations from the community, helping to enrich our garden.

Friday Night Social
We wrapped up the week with our Friday night social after the bowling league, heading to Cooroy RSL for a delightful dinner and an evening of dancing to a live band. It was a fun night filled with camaraderie and great music.

Saturday Social
Our Saturday social trip took us to HQ Zoo and the Big Pineapple, where we explored and enjoyed the sights of the animals. It was a memorable outing that brought smiles to everyone’s faces.

Thank you for being an integral part of our Arlie’s Shed family! Your support and engagement help us create a welcoming and vibrant environment for all. We look forward to sharing even more exciting updates and adventures with you in the week ahead!

Warm regards,
The Arlie’s Shed Team
