Our
comprehensive program offers an extensive range of non-traditional learning
opportunities designed to encourage individuals to explore, enhance, and
utilise their unique skills.
From trying their hand at cooking and housekeeping to managing finances and
socialising effectively, our program is tailored to provide practical and
hands-on learning experiences that enable individuals to acquire valuable life
skills and unlock their full potential.
We use signs and communication cards which empower residents to express themselves in a whole new way. Specifically crafted for those who need a bit of extra help, our systems use a mix of symbols, signs, and words to make communication crystal clear. Residents can easily share their thoughts, feelings, and needs, using signs and symbols to make sure everyone understands them. Plus, it's a fantastic tool to develop listening and language skills, and to boost literacy.
Residents are encouraged to participate in non-traditional education to develop their skills with the outcome being they achieve community-based vocation. Staff members support them in their roles to ensure that they can fully comply with what is expected of them. Current residents have the opportunity to work upscaling old furniture with our community partners, Second Time Around and also volunteering at the Salvation Army charity shops.
Members
of our team are trained to deliver life skills following the practices of
ASDAN, whose aim is to engage young people through relevant and motivating
courses to achieve meaningful learning outcomes, which elevate them to go on to
further education, training and work, and empower them to take control of their
lives.
We also align with Helen Sanderson's person-centred thinking tools, which
encourage decision-making and proactively making life choices, which include
important places, interests and people that matter to a person.
