Yesterday, we had the pleasure of welcoming Dan Repacholi MP to Prelude Australia.

It was a great opportunity to share more about our work as a local charity and how our early childhood & therapy supports make a meaningful difference for children and families across his electorate.

Thank you, Dan, for taking the time to learn about the needs of our community and how organisations like Prelude Australia help children thrive.

We look forward to continuing the conversation and working together to support local families.

International Day of People with Disability 2025 🌏🌱✨

This year’s theme “fostering disability-inclusive societies for advancing social progress” highlights the idea that real progress happens when every person is supported to participate fully within their community.

At Prelude Australia, inclusion isn’t something we celebrate only once a year — it’s built into everything we do.
We focus on supporting children’s everyday environments so they can learn, play and connect to reach their potential in ways that are meaningful to them.

By working alongside families, schools and the local community, we’re helping build environments where every child can participate, belong, and thrive.

Let’s continue creating a future where inclusion isn’t an add-on, but a shared value that shapes how we live, learn, and grow together. 💙

🌟 Collaboration. Respect. Best Practice. 🌟

At Prelude Australia, we believe that the best outcomes for children, families, and communities come from working together.

Our commitment to collaboration and respect extends beyond the work we do with clients — it’s at the heart of how we support each other as a team.

Team days are more than just a chance to connect — they’re an opportunity to learn, reflect, and grow together. By sharing ideas, strengthening relationships, and exploring best practice approaches, we ensure that every service we deliver is guided by expertise, compassion, and continuous improvement.

Because when we work together, we create stronger support, deeper understanding, and better outcomes for the families we serve.

💙🌏 Happy World Children’s Day! 🌏💙

Today we celebrate World Children’s Day, a day dedicated to promoting the rights, voices, and wellbeing of every child around the world. It’s a reminder that all children deserve to learn, play, grow, and be heard, and that communities, families, and services have a role to play in supporting them.

At Prelude Australia, we listen to children’s voices and help them reach their potential through early therapy supports. We champion inclusion by celebrating every ability, and support families to feel confident and involved.

By working together, we can create a world where every child is supported, valued, and able to thrive.
