Agfest is just around the corner, and we're heading on our annual Respite excursion. We've organised a day trip to Quercus Park in Carrick on Saturday 9 May, and we'd love you to join us.

It's a great day out, with hundreds of exhibitors, plenty to see and do, and the best of Tasmanian agriculture on show. We'll be travelling together by bus with full support across the day.

If you'd like to make a weekend of it, accommodation at Lyne House in Newstead may also be available - just ask when you get in touch.

Places are limited, so get in early. Contact the Respite team to register your interest:

With the cooler days and evenings settling in, Sarah has been enjoying spending time indoors at home where it's warm and cosy.

Recently she's been working on a creative mosaic picture frame, carefully arranging broken glass tiles and applying grout to complete her design. It takes focus, patience and a steady hand, while supporting the development of her hand-eye coordination and fine motor skills.

It's been wonderful to see her so engaged and proud of her work. We're looking forward to seeing what creative projects she takes on next.

What a way to celebrate Easter! 🐣

Our Social Club got into the spirit today with bunny ears, egg hunt, festive decorations, Easter cupcakes and plenty of smiles all round. It was a lovely afternoon of good company, good fun, and sweet treats - exactly what Easter should look like.

Congrats to our residential crew for pulling it together! From everyone at St Michael's, we hope you and your loved ones have a wonderful Easter weekend.

The Launceston Cup looked a little different at St Michael's this year, and we think our version might have been better!

Our participants designed and made their own hats from scratch before taking to the runway in a full fashion show, complete with prizes for the best in field.

The creativity, the confidence, the absolutely outstanding headwear - we couldn't be prouder of everyone who got involved.

Check out some of the looks and winners for yourself.

There's something genuinely satisfying about a home that's well looked after, and our participants are nailing it.

This week we're spotlighting some of the everyday moments that don't always get the recognition they deserve: cooking up a meal from scratch, getting the vacuuming done, washing up after dinner, and tackling the bathroom.

Real tasks, real effort, real pride. These are the skills that make a difference every single day. Well done to everyone pictured — you should be proud of your skills and spaces.

Sharing a few pics from a great afternoon on Australia Day, coming together for a relaxed BBQ and park games — including a very competitive game of 'backyard' cricket!

Thank you to all the staff and participants who joined in, brought along salads to share, played games, and enjoyed plenty of laughs on what turned out to be a beautiful day. The sense of connection and fun was felt by everyone there, and it was wonderful to see people so engaged and enjoying each other’s company.

Declan summed it up perfectly when he said, “This is the best Australia Day I have ever had!” Oscar, Declan, Mathew, Sarah and Alice were fully immersed in the cricket game, with some great support from Grace and June along the way.

Outstanding active support across the board — a big thank you to every support worker and attendee who made the day such a success.
