Consent matters. A person cannot consent to s*x if they are under the age of consent (16 or 17 depending on where you live in Australia), drunk or heavily affected by drugs or alcohol, unconscious, or unable to understand what is happening.

Consent also cannot be freely given if someone is being threatened, pressured, manipulated, or tricked. Sometimes people may feel they cannot say no because the other person has more power or control over them — this is called a power imbalance.

Power imbalances can happen because of age, relationships, or control over parts of someone’s life such as who they see, what they wear, or their money. If this has happened or is happening to you or someone you care about, it’s important to talk to someone you trust who can help.

Talking with young people about s*xual consent can feel uncomfortable, but you are not alone and support is available to help start these important conversations.

Good sleep is more than just rest—it’s the foundation of good health, strong minds, and happy spirits.

Today, Friday 13 March 2026, we’re reminding mob to Make Sleep Health a Priority.

💡 3 Tips for a Better Sleep Routine:

✅ Stick to a sleep schedule – wake up and go to bed at the same time each day.
✅ Limit caffeine and sugar before bed – Your body needs time to wind down.
✅ Reduce screen time at night – Swap phones and TV for a yarn or a book.

Our Elders teach us the importance of looking after our health.
Let’s listen and make good sleep a daily habit!

What’s your best sleep tip? Share below! ⬇️

Staff Spotlight: Hari- Human Resources Coordinator

Hari has been part of the Kambu Health team for 3 years, bringing passion, care and dedication to her role as HR Coordinator.

Originally from the UK and proudly Punjabi, Hari plays an important role in supporting our team. She focuses on employee engagement, supporting managers, and ensuring processes run smoothly so our staff can continue providing the best care to the community.

Hari says no two days at Kambu Health are ever the same, and that’s something she truly loves about her work. One of her favourite parts about working at Kambu Health is spending time with the Elders. Being far from her own family and grandparents, those moments mean a lot to her.

Outside of work, Hari is a busy mum to her 4 year old, so most of her time is filled with fun kid activities and family life. When she does get a little downtime, you’ll likely find her at the beach enjoying a coffee with friends.

Thank you, Hari, for the care, energy and positivity you bring to Kambu Health every day!

🧵🧸 Elders Sewing Session at Children and Family Centre 🧸🧵

Our wonderful Elders gathered at the Children and Family Centre (CFC) for their fortnightly Sewing Session for an extra special session last Friday 💛

The Elders were excited to be creating handmade teddy bears for the jarjums who attend the centre. 🐻

The sewing room was filled with smiles, laughter, and plenty of creativity as our Elders:
✂️ Yarned and laughed while cutting out the patterns
🪡 Used the sewing machines and carefully filled the bears with soft stuffing
🧸 Felt proud and excited as they stitched the final opening closed to complete each teddy

Our Elders were also surprised with a special visit from Simone Jackson (Chief Executive Officer), who stayed and enjoyed lunch with them. 😊 For lunch we ate mince and onion rissoles with mushroom gravy, mashed potatoes, and vegetables. 🍽️🥔🥦 Compliments to our chef, Damian — the meal was delicious and everyone finished what was on their plates!

Again, a big shoutout to Aunty Julie, Aunty Janelle, Aunty Charmaine, Aunty Kathy, Aunty Robyn, Aunty Ruth, and Aunty Lillian, who were pleasantly surprised at how beautiful the teddy bears turned out! 🌟

For first-time teddy bear makers, our Aunties agreed they did an amazing job and are already looking forward to the next sewing session. 💕

AMAROO KINDERGARTEN, A Place Where Little Minds Grow & Big Adventures Begin!

We believe childhood should be filled with curiosity, creativity, and the freedom to explore. 🌿

Our high staff-to-child ratio means every child receives the attention, support, and encouragement they need to thrive. Our passionate educators take the time to truly know each child — helping them build confidence, friendships, and a love of learning.

One of the things families love most about Amaroo Kindergarten is our huge, beautiful outdoor area. Children spend their days exploring nature, running, climbing, discovering, and letting their imaginations run free in a space designed for adventure and growth.

Inside, our learning spaces are filled with engaging toys and resources that inspire creativity and discovery, including:

🧲 Magnetiles and construction toys for building and problem-solving
👐🏾 Sensory toys that support hands-on learning and exploration
📚 A wide range of books to spark imagination and early literacy
🖤 Indigenous toys and cultural resources that help children learn about and respect Australia's rich heritage

Every day at Amaroo Kindergarten is an opportunity for children to play, explore, create, and grow in a nurturing environment.

If you're looking for a kindergarten where your child will be supported, inspired, and excited to learn each day, Amaroo Kindergarten is the place to begin their journey. 🌱

📍 Come and see the magic for yourself — we’d love to welcome your family to Amaroo. You can contact our Amaroo Kindergarten team on (07) 3812 2258

NOTE: To be eligible to attend, children must be aged at least 4 years of age by 30 June in the year before they attend school
