✨ LOOK WHAT WE DID IN 2025! ✨

What. A. Year. 💥

2025 was full of laughs, learning, mess, memories and major moments for our BTS family.
🌱 We grew gardens (and sometimes forgot to water them… oops 😂)
🧠 We built life skills – shopping, cooking, budgeting and planning like absolute legends
🏊‍♂️ We splashed our way through summer with creeks, water parks and pool days
🛍️ We smashed 1:1 goals – from independent shopping to meal planning
🐴 We connected with animals and nature
🎨 We created, painted, built, designed and proudly showed off our talents
🤝 We learned about friendship, emotions, boundaries and being the best versions of ourselves
🎉 We celebrated birthdays, milestones and big wins (and yes… the dance moves got wild)
But the best part of 2025?
The growth.
The confidence.
The laughter.
The courage.
And the way our little BTS family showed up for each other every single day 💙
To our amazing participants, families and staff — thank you for trusting us with your journeys. You made this year unforgettable.
Here’s to even bigger dreams, louder laughs and more memories in 2026 🥂
🚀

Craft activities aren’t just fun—they’re powerful tools for developing lifelong skills. Whether it’s painting, sewing, building, drawing, or hands-on creative projects, craft teaches a wide range of abilities that support learning, independence, and personal growth.

We wrapped presents… and then wrapped staff members for fun (consent given, dignity questionable).
🚨 Special mention to Support Worker Mark, who was gently but firmly stopped from running amok. You know what you did, Mark 😏

🎉 School Holiday Programs went off with a BANG:
🌈 Tie-dye classes = colourful chaos
🏰 Coolum Inflatable World = bounced until exhaustion
💦 Under 18s water slide + Christmas break-up party = pure joy, soaked socks
🍽️ Our Over 18s showed us how it’s done—enjoying pub meals, Christmas community events, and all the festive feels 🎄🍻
🤝 1:1 Sessions focused on building friendships by joining group sessions where possible, practising coping strategies, and working alongside supports to build confidence and connection 💙
📣 Heads up: Limited spots available for 2026 programs—get in quick!
👇 Now your turn…
What was your favourite BTS moment this week? We love hearing it! 😄

🎄 We’re Open Over the Christmas Break! 🎄

Our Learning & Lifestyle Program will be running right through the Christmas holidays, only closing on public holidays – 25th & 26th December.

Over the years, we’ve tried giving our young people a break over Christmas… but they told us loud and clear — they didn’t want it!

They love their routine, the fun, and most importantly, spending their days with their much-loved friends ❤️

So this year, we’re keeping things going — familiar faces, engaging activities, and the supportive environment they enjoy, all while still embracing the festive spirit 🎁✨

If you have any questions or would like to know more, feel free to reach out!
