25.01.2022 To continue celebrating #AutismAwareness & #AutismAppreciation Month, here is a great, informative video from Professor Andrew Whitehouse, director of CliniKids Autism Research - 10 THINGS THAT EVERYONE SHOULD KNOW ABOUT #ASD "Every child and adult on the #AutismSpectrum is different, full of their own unique talents, personalities and challenges. The label Autism doesn't mean one thing; it is a gateway to understanding a whole new way of thinking about the world. And t...hose children and adults are to be cherished for that fact". . . #CelebratingDiversity #WAAM #ABAmelbourne #ABAtherapy #AutismSpectrumDisorder #KidsWithAutism #AutisticKids #AutismEducation See more

25.01.2022 #NAIDOC2020 invites Australians to embrace, hear and learn about the First Nations’ 65,000+ year history in Australia, and celebrating that we have the oldest continuing cultures on the planet. Here's a beautiful image of The Rainbow Serpent that anyone (kids and adults!) can enjoy colouring-in, and reflect on the great meaning of it. https://www.naidoc.org.au//2020-naidoc-poster-colouring-in... "The Rainbow Serpent came out of the Dreamtime to create this land. It is represented by the snake and it forms the shape of Australia, which symbolises how it created our lands. The colour from the Rainbow Serpent is reflected on to the figure to display our connection to the Rainbow Serpent, thus our connection to country. The overlapping colours on the outside is the Dreamtime. The figure inside the shape of Australia is a representation of Indigenous Australians showing that this country - since the dawn of time - always was, and always will be Aboriginal land." Museums Victoria also has many online resources sharing and celebrating the First Peoples stories, cultures and achievements. https://museumsvictoria.com.au/naidoc/

21.01.2022 Memories from 9 years ago - Recycled Ball! Everyone one wore opp shop clothes, own clothes from a previous era (wedding dresses included), a recycled halloween costume was eye catching, we even modelled a vintage collection from within our Village! Very nostalgic. Sustainable fashion before it was labelled that. Wilbur Wilde and Wendy Stapleton added more nostalgia and an energetic Swing Patrol dance troop inspired a few of our Villagers to start swing dancing (still going strong to this very day) Annabelle Hale - Artist ! https://www.facebook.com/media/set/
