Feeling the love 🩵 Big thanks to for the shoutout & kind words! We are all about community & supporting each other. Make sure you go check them out — they’re doing incredible work, building an inclusive and creative space for growth through art, play, music, and connection.

I’ve always lived by the belief that if you see something good in others — you tell them 💛

I’ve seen some amazing things coming out of The Ability Collective lately and just wanted to share their page and show them some love. They’re based in Baringa and doing bloody incredible work in the community 👏

I love seeing the kids in their posts dancing and having so much joy — it honestly makes me smile every time 🥰

Some people might think it’s odd to share another business in the same industry, but honestly, the more great options and supports available for families — the better! There’s room for all of us 👏

Keep smashing it team — you’re absolute legends 🙌

If you know of any other great services, drop them in the comments x

Our HARDCOVER COFFEE TABLE BOOK is due to be released early December and we want your faces for the pages!

Got something you’d love to see in the Yearbook? Bring that too — whether it’s your artwork, your guinea pig, your unicycle or favourite costume — we’re all for it.

For photos, please wear bright colours and avoid logos or pictures on t-shirts 🤙🏽

Can’t make it? Don’t stress — we’ll do our best to include everyone in the book. Attending one of the shoot days means better quality photos and a guaranteed appearance and a copy of your photos!

Thanks legends! We can’t wait to see this all come together.

GroovAbility is all about exploring different dance styles in a fun, social way — and we kicked things off with a hip-hop block! The crew got moving with games, learnt a routine to a classic Run-D.M.C. track, and dived into the history of where hip-hop began in the Bronx, New York.

Each block wraps up with a themed movie night — because it’s not just about dancing, it’s about community, connection, and good times.

There’s always room to join in, so if you’re keen to move, learn and vibe with the crew, come check it out!

Introducing the TAC Yearbook Committee.

We’re on a mission to capture all the madness, magic, and memories from the year — and turn them into a beautiful hardcover coffee table book.

It’s not just a Friday thing — we’re constantly collecting photos, stories, and moments from across TAC. But our Friday crew will be the ones bringing it all together — designing, writing, editing, and making the magic happen.

Because no epic moment or inside joke deserves to be forgotten.
