https://www.abilitiesunlimited.com.au/isp

Are you looking for swimming lessons tailored to your child’s individual needs?

Waterabilities is a Royal Life Saving–partnered program, licensed to deliver the Swim and Survive curriculum—however, we are more than just swimming lessons. Our program is a capacity‑building experience that uses water safety as the foundation while supporting your child’s broader development.

We work one‑on‑one with participants to build:
✅ Water safety knowledge and skills
✅ Emotional regulation
✅ Fundamental movement skills
✅ Social confidence and Connection

All AUA programs, including Waterabilities, are aligned with relevant NDIS categories, such as Capacity Building and Core Supports, supporting participants to develop skills for greater independence, safety, and participation in everyday life.

Our goal is to equip children with the tools they need to feel confident, capable, and safe in the water—giving parents peace of mind every time their child enters an aquatic environment.

🌊 Join Waterabilities today and begin your child’s water safety journey toward becoming happier, safer, and more socially fulfilled.

Sessions run on weekends between 8:30am and 3:50pm at the following locations:

Huge thank you to Gay, Dija, and Tamika, who joined me representing AUA at the St Thomas the Apostle fete last night. We handed out flyers and met families interested in hearing about AUA and what we do. We gave out some little sensory toys to the kids. The fete was excellent, well attended, and so much fun. Thanks also to Brent, who volunteered to join us, but the team already had everything covered. Thanks again, Louise

Thankyou Carly Taylor...

On behalf of all past and present AUA families, participants, staff, and volunteers, we extend our heartfelt thanks to Carly Taylor as she completed her tenure on the AUA Board last evening.

Carly has been an invaluable contributor to the growth and governance of Abilities Unlimited Australia, bringing structure, formality, and a strong commitment to best practice governance throughout her service.

Her leadership has shaped many facets of AUA’s development—from overseeing community events to guiding significant projects, most notably the creation of the Evatt Cycle Track.

Carly has generously mentored office and program staff, provided steady support across countless initiatives, and ensured the parent voice was central in strategic planning and new program design.

Her hard work, sharp wit, and warm presence have left an enduring mark on AUA.

We cannot thank you enough, Carly, for all you have contributed. We will deeply miss you, your energy, and your wonderful family.

While you have finished your official AUA role on the Board, we look forward to your continued presence in the AUA family.

The AthleticsAbilities program continues to go from strength to strength each week, beautifully reflected in the children’s growing confidence, enthusiasm, and active participation. The dedication and involvement of parents remain central to this success, providing the foundation for the children’s enjoyment and their willingness to engage in new activities and drills.

AthleticsAbilities is delighted to welcome McNeill Sherwin to the role of Team Lead. We are excited to have you on board this program—welcome to the AthleticsAbilities team, McNeill!

UPDATE....TOUCH FOOTY 🏈 🏈 🏈 🏈 🏈

While The Woden School has reopened following recent closures to repair flood damage, the outdoor area we use for Touch Footy on Saturdays is still off‑limits.
As a result, our Touch Footy session this Saturday, 21 February, will again be held at the Deakin Ovals (see attached map) at 10:00 am instead of at The Woden School.
We are hopeful that we will return to The Woden School the following Saturday, 28 February, and we will keep you updated on any further changes.
Congratulations and our very best wishes to The Woden School community, who have been through a very challenging week and are working hard to support all students as they settle back into Term 1.
