✨ WELCOME TO THRIVE TRIBE ✨

At RADS, we have been busy creating a new program designed specifically for NDIS teens & young adults!

Thrive Tribe is a safe, supportive and fun environment where participants can develop practical life skills while building lasting connections.
Participants will help design their own term calendar, choosing the recipes they want to cook, the activities they’d like to try, and even planning special community outings together. It’s their group, their ideas, their goals!

Each week supports NDIS goals through:
✔ Building independence & confidence
✔ Time management
✔ Planning & cooking recipes as a team
✔ Learning shared responsibility
✔ Practising problem-solving

Thrive Tribe is a place to belong, a safe night out with friends, a space to laugh, connect and just be themselves.

For more information or to chat about different program options, please get in touch, we’d love to connect with you.

First week of KIDS CLUB has been a huge success! 🎉

We’ve loved having the kids around the RADS Pad, playing, running, building new skills and forming wonderful friendships. It’s been such a joy to see everyone having fun and growing together.

We’re incredibly proud to host this program and provide a space where kids can connect and enjoy their holidays in a supportive and engaging environment 💙

Looking forward to creating many more memories next week on Tuesday & Friday.

Happy Wednesday everyone! 💚

Don’t forget the free lunch is on at 12pm today at the RADS Pad, and we’d love to see you there!
It’s a great chance to come together and connect with others 😀

Here is a snap from a couple of Wednesdays ago when our crew enjoyed a special outing to Belicious Cafe. While we usually host lunch at the Pad each week, on the last Wednesday of the month we like to mix things up and head out for a community lunch.

Today we’re back at the RADS Pad serving sausage sizzle!
Remember that the fun continues after lunch. Our crew loves playing 8ball pool in our rec room here at the pad. Whether you’re a pro or just playing for fun, everyone is welcome to join in!

See you at 12pm 🌭🎱✨

Living life, building skills, and having fun, all while working towards goals ✨💚

We absolutely love celebrating the journeys of our participants and sharing the moments that make it all so special:

Malcolm showed amazing courage stepping out of his comfort zone to go tree climbing. He took on a new challenge and had a great time enjoying the outdoors!

Amanda had a fantastic day at the Milan Easter Fair and also proudly competed in the Sailability State Championships representing Goolwa Sailing Club and RADS. It was her very first competition and we couldn’t be prouder of her effort and determination. Well done Amanda!

Shae has taken a big step towards her goals by officially opening her very own home nail art salon, and she’s ready to take bookings! Such an exciting achievement and we’re so proud of her.

Tristan has been learning fishing skills, had a great day out, and even caught a puffer fish! A fun experience while building confidence and trying something new.

These are the moments that really matter, living life to the fullest and enjoying every step of the journey. Thanks to our amazing participants for reminding us what we are capable of 💙
