Karate gradings today for Additional needs children as well as our two Advanced Additional needs children. Proud is an understatement- literally bought tears to our eyes. Thankyou so much to Jason, Sebastian and Rabia for assisting this class!!

Lots of news to share before we end the term. Our soccer program is going to another level!! We had to make new arrangements because of the revamp of Mick’s Jump and Play and as a result we are now working with Phoenix Soccer Club. We now have a genuine path to transition children into the Phoenix Development Squad. One of our players, Declan has been training in this club and is now going to be playing for a mainstream team. Winners of our Best and Fairest this term are Liam and Lewis. Lewis will be leaving our program in 2026 - he has joined a mainstream Basketball team and we couldn’t be prouder!!! Many thanks to Diva who has coached our kids for the last couple of years. Also much gratitude to Mick and Anne for their support over the last couple of years. The whole community appreciates the role you have played in the Melton community for as long as I can remember 🙏🙏🙏

This is our latest client to get a job. Gab and his mother obtained volunteer work at Vinnies and together they worked on a Sunday so that Gab could learn the skills required to work in retail! Here he is at Kmart behind the register, doing a fantastic job. The family put in the work and now Gab is reaping the rewards!! Congratulations mate! You set a goal and you worked to achieve it! Love seeing that proud face!!

🎃 A little late to the Halloween party… but we couldn’t resist! 👻
We hope everyone had a fun and safe spooky season!

While we’re catching up, we’re also thrilled to introduce the newest member of our team — Tamanna, our new Provisional Psychologist

Tamanna brings a warm and compassionate approach, with a passion for helping clients navigate Neurodivergence. We’re so excited to have her on board! 💛

And of course, a special shoutout to our Principal Psychologist, Denise Cran, for leading the way — and getting into the Halloween spirit too, and to Skye and Tamanna for bringing festive fun and engagement to our group sessions!! 🎃💛

Please join us in giving Tamanna a big welcome in the comments! 💛
