The first week of our new programs has been awesome.

The participants have already begun getting into the new routines, building connections, and practical skills across the groups, which is exactly what these programs are designed to do.

If you or someone you know is wanting to join in any of our groups, know that we have structured everything so that new participants can slot in without feeling like they are behind — we’ll bring them up to speed and support them properly from day one.

Our new Kids in the Community Group was a hit yesterday with the kids. Everyone got to burn off a bit of energy and I’m pretty sure the staff had just as much fun as the kids.

We are currently seeking additional venues for our participants to volunteer on a specific Thursday each month, we have comprehensive insurance coverage in place and support workers will accompany the group.

“We offer meet and greets and trial days so you can come in, check everything out, and feel comfortable before committing to any of the new programs below”

We're excited to officially launch our new "Sparks" Day Programs at Sparks Social Abilities.

As of the 20th of April, we're introducing 7 brand new programs, alongside our much-loved Bowling and Social Groups-creating more opportunities than ever for our participants to learn, connect, and grow.
These programs have been carefully designed with a clear focus: building real-life skills, increasing independence, and supporting real, measurable growth in a structured and supportive environment.

Each session is more than just an activity. It's a chance for participants to:
• Develop confidence in everyday situations
• Strengthen social and communication skills
• Build practical life skills for greater independence
• Create routine, consistency, and meaningful connections

As part of this progression, some program costs will slightly change. This reflects adjustments to support ratios, ranging between 1:2 and 1:3, ensuring participants receive the right level of tailored support to maximise their development and outcomes.

We've already seen strong growth across our groups, and this next phase is about building on that momentum and taking it further.

To our current participants and families-thank you for your continued trust and we are excited for what's to come.

With the wet weather today, the kids' Easter holiday group bypassed Granite Gorge and made their way to the Crystal Caves in Atherton. Everyone had an amazing adventure, and some new friendships were formed. What a great way to start to wind up the Easter break.

Our Afterschool Kids Social Groups have had a slight update, with the introduction of a brand new “Kids in the Community” group.

This new group gives participants the opportunity to head out in the van and explore the community, getting involved in fun, real-world activities outside of the hub. Each session will be different, allowing the kids to experience new environments, build confidence, and develop their social skills in natural settings.

We’re looking forward to seeing the kids engage, explore, and grow through these experiences.

Our Adult Day Program headed up to Rainforestation recently and it was such a good day all round.

Massive shoutout to the team up there — they were honestly amazing. Super welcoming, easy to deal with, and they really made the whole experience enjoyable for both our participants and staff.

Everyone had a great time, lots of laughs, and just a really good vibe the whole day. Days like this are what it’s all about 🙌

We’ll definitely be back.
