Life skills in action! 🎾🚗🌟
At Ability Network, we’re passionate about building confidence and independence by learning real-life skills within our community.
Our Thursday Social Night saw everyone out on the court playing tennis 🎾- building coordination, teamwork, confidence and having plenty of fun along the way! Social skills, fitness and friendships all in one great evening.
Participants practiced essential life skills by shopping at our local Woolworths 🛒 — learning how to select items, manage a budget, and navigate a real-world environment.
We also captured some fantastic moments of:-
Participants safely filling up a car with fuel 🚘⛽ - an important everyday skill that supports independence and community access.
Donna enjoyed a lovely night out supporting Shane Kerr and Lusi Austin - a wonderful example of staying connected and being part of our local community. ✨
Shane also visited the iconic Parkes Observatory - what an incredible experience exploring one of Australia’s most famous landmarks and expanding knowledge of this great town 🌌
These everyday experiences are so much more than activities, they’re opportunities to grow independence, develop practical skills, strengthen social confidence and truly be part of our community.
So proud of everyone stepping up, having a go and continuing to grow every day. 💙🧡
