Every session is a chance to build confidence, independence and a whole lot of fun. And of courseโ€ฆ the best part will always be tasteโ€‘testing the final results.

This weekโ€™s creation? Cupcakes! The perfect choice to celebrate a very special birthday and fill The Cottage with sweet smells and even sweeter smiles. ๐Ÿง

This week our group has been diving into the basics of photography, experimenting with forced perspective and discovering how a simple shift in angle can turn an ordinary moment into something magical.

With a backdrop as stunning as Queens Gardens in the CBD, we knew the results would be pictureโ€‘perfect. And they absolutely delivered. A brilliant start to a year full of imagination, learning, and new ways of seeing the world.

Well, done team, love these shots!

With the Christmas rush behind us, our EcoStore Enterprises shelves needed a little love, and the call came through for a fresh batch of our famous Doggie Biscuits.

Following our return for 2026, our participants had the chance to attend a fantastic Snake Safety session at SAM, hosted by RiverConnect - Greater Shepparton and Black Snake Productions. The event was incredibly well received and packed with valuable learning.

Our participants explored the different types of local snakesโ€”Tiger Snakes, Brown Snakes, and Redโ€‘bellied Black Snakesโ€”and learnt how to identify them, understand their temperaments, and stay safe while out in nature. The group also gained practical knowledge on what to do in the event of a snake bite during bushwalks.

A special shoutโ€‘out to James, who showed amazing bravery by holding the albino olive python!

We love seeing our participants grow in confidence, knowledge, and connection with the world around them.

Our Learning & Lifestyle Hub programs spent the final week of the year celebrating the Christmas season with friends, laughter, and plenty of festive cheer.
Throughout the year, every participant has achieved so muchโ€”supported every step of the way by our incredible Learning & Lifestyle Mentors. We celebrate all goals, big or small, but what shines brightest is seeing these moments happen together through our group activities. ๐ŸŒŸ

It is truly a privilege for all of us at Shepparton Access to work alongside our participants. Watching them grow, build life skills, gain confidence, and then seeing it all come together as a group is one of the most rewarding parts of what we do.

So, this shout out goes to all our participants: ๐“๐‡๐€๐๐Š ๐˜๐Ž๐” for an amazing 2025. You make every day brighter, and we canโ€™t wait for more learning, connection, and skill building in 2026.
