✨ Elders Group Arts and Crafts at Laidley ✨

Last Wednesday marked the return of our Kambu Health Elders Group for 2026, coming back together at Laidley Family Wellbeing Service for Arts & Crafts🖌️🎨

Even with some of our Elders away, there was so much joy in the room seeing familiar faces and welcoming everyone back after the holiday break. The space was filled with plenty of yarning and plenty of laughter. Some of their yarns must have been deadly because you could hear laughter throughout the building😂

Our Elders wasted no time getting creative:
🎨 Aunty Ruth painted a vibrant mini cheese table
🎨 Aunty Pam and Aunty Rhonda each created a beautiful long tray/bowl
🎨 Aunty Julie made some lovely beaded jewellery

What a deadly way to kick off 2026 at Kambu Health Ipswich Children and Family Centre (CFC)! 💛

To start the January school holidays, our families came together for a Back to School Family Fun Day filled with yarns, laughter, and creativity. Kids enjoyed hands-on activities like playdough, bean bag toss, colouring-in, and bracelet making 🎨

We were proud to welcome Nana Magic, who shared a beautiful First Nations children’s show exploring Aboriginal & Torres Strait Islander country, culture, language, song and dance 🎶. Families joined in singing and dancing, making it a truly special shared experience. We wrapped up the day with a healthy lunch and good company, enjoying fresh sandwiches and fruit together 🥪🍎

Thank you to all our families for coming along and making the day so special — strong families, strong community✨

On Thursday 22 January 2026 CFC has another School Holiday program at Ripley Park for a splash and play. If you would like to join or for further information please contact CFC on 07)3810 3010.
