15.01.2022 Sunshine Butterflies on vacation! Our members and staff took our ‘Social Saturdays’ to a whole new level on the weekend with an overnight adventure to Hervey Bay. The Butterfly crew packed their bags on Friday and headed up the coast to a beautiful resort for a WHALE WATCHING TOUR.... Our members had a fantastic time hanging out with their friends and experiencing the magic of seeing whales breaching in the ocean. ‘Social Saturdays’ has been so incredible for our members who have now experienced a day at the football, an adventure to Cooloola Berries, a Noosa Ferry trip, a visit to a cat café and now a whale watching tour. What an amazing mini-vacation organised by our dedicated Butterfly staff, just look at all those smiles! We provide supported holidays and social events for our members at Sunshine Butterflies. Our aim is to give those living with a disability unique and valuable experiences to help them thrive, make new friends and have fun!
