Centre Happenings

New Coffee & Chat sessions at the Centre
​Our new ‘Coffee & Chat’ sessions are being held monthly to provide parents and caregivers an opportunity to connect. It’s a great chance to meet others who attend on a different day. Purely social, this is ‘time out’ in a safe environment. Our wonderful staff, Marguerite and Emma are on hand, making sure the coffee is flowing and that there are always plenty of toys for the children to play with. The next 'Coffee & Chat' will be in either week 8 or 9. Keep an eye out for more details.

Musical Magic
We couldn’t resist sharing this beautiful photo of Rachael, our Music Therapist and Bruno engaged in a musical moment together playing the xylophone and guitar.

Sign Language takes off via Zoom! 
​This year in a new initiative, we have been running Zoom Sign Language classes for families wanting to sign with their children. Previously we have offered in-person courses but as covid loomed it seemed a good idea to try out zoom. These worked well and families have enjoyed not having to leave their homes to attend. Liz, our talented Sign Language Coordinator has so far reached more than 20 people. Mums, dads, brothers and sisters have all joined in. We will continue to offer beginner courses each term and are planning some further courses for those who want to continue on. Sign Language can be a great way to support a child’s learning and development, particularly in the area of communication.
