Inclusive Father Christmas Sessions at the Whyalla Public Library🎄🎅
📅 Session 1: TOMORROW 5th Dec, 2–5pm
📅 Session 2: 12th Dec, 2–4pm

After last year's success, we’re again offering two special sessions designed for individuals with additional needs, providing a quiet, calm environment to meet Father Christmas. These sessions eliminate overwhelming crowds, loud noises, and long waits by offering scheduled individual time slots.

We kindly ask that attendees bring their own phone or camera for taking photos to keep things personal and simple.

If you or someone you know would benefit from this inclusive experience, contact Chloe on 0427 165 232 to book your spot or ask any questions. 🎄🎁

The Whyalla Disability Inclusive Reference Group was thrilled to once again be involved with The Whyalla Show last month (August 2024).

The weekend was a colourful success with special thanks to our sponsor, Eddie Hughes MP for the donation of our signage front, and to Stacey Brougham for the amazing design work!

It being our second year running the Chill Out Zone, we could not do it without the help of our amazing volunteers, both those you would have met over the weekend, and the lovely people working behind the scenes – for that we thank them. If you would like to become involved, read further information via the link.

We would most appreciate your feedback from this year, whether using the poll on our website via the link, via our Facebook, or by using the “contact us” section of our website.
