Fun Friday Workshops
“Fun Friday” continues to be popular with our 6 to 10 age group. The students particularly enjoy learning daily living skills while cooking and our “Master Chef” group challenge was hotly contested.
They also have fun learning recreational skills and social skills, and many lovely friendships have developed within the group.
This year’s group of Peer Support students (Marama, Luca, Zahina, Te Roma and Zack) have shown great leadership skills and have been a great help and role models for the others.
