Term 2 Groups!

Our Teen Cuisine and Chef’s Adventure groups have available spaces for Term 2, supporting children and teens to build confidence in the kitchen and beyond.

Across each session, participants will develop practical life skills through cooking, planning, shopping and working as part of a group.

These sessions naturally support executive functioning, social communication, problem-solving and independence, while also providing gentle, low-pressure exposure to new foods for those who need it.

With small group sizes and structured support, these groups are a great way to build skills, connection and confidence in a fun, therapeutic and meaningful way.

Head to our website to learn more and register.

Our group programs provide a supportive and safe space to learn and enhance a wide range of skills whilst working among peers. Group programs are designed

🎄 Merry Christmas from all of us at Kandoo Therapy 🎄

Today can look and feel very different for everyone. While Christmas is a time of celebration and connection for many, we also acknowledge that it can bring up big emotions, grief, stress, or feelings of loneliness for some. Wherever today finds you, we hope you’re able to be gentle with yourself and feel supported in the way you need.

I want to take a moment to say a heartfelt thank you to our incredible Kandoo Therapy team. Your compassion, creativity, dedication, and care for the children and families we support is something I am endlessly proud of.

A few weeks ago, we had the chance to come together as a team and slow down with a beautiful weaving workshop with Maryanne Moodie, a special moment to connect, reflect, and celebrate the year that’s been. It was a reminder of how important it is to pause and look after one another too.

To all of our wonderful children and families , thank you for trusting us to be part of your journey. We hope the holiday season brings moments of rest, connection, and joy in whatever way that looks like for you!

We’re looking forward to seeing you again in the new year . Until then, we wish you a safe, gentle, and Merry Christmas.

💙 Dani and the Kandoo Therapy Team 💙
