The school holidays are here, and for parents and carers of NDIS participants, it can be a time filled with both excitement and planning. While it’s a wonderful break from routine, keeping children and young adults engaged and entertained can be a challenge.
Here at Bharosa Community Services, a registered NDIS provider, we understand the importance of creating fun and enriching experiences for participants during school holidays. Whether you’re looking for individualised activities or group programs, we offer a range of options to keep everyone happy!
Creative and Engaging Activities
- Arts & Crafts: Unleash creativity with painting, drawing, pottery, or even music sessions. NDIS funding can often cover the cost of materials and support workers to assist with these activities.
- Sensory Play: Explore textures, sounds, and smells with sensory bins or create a calming space for relaxation.
- Outdoor Adventures: Get some fresh air and exercise with a trip to the park, a visit to a zoo, or a nature walk.
- Cooking Fun: Learn basic cooking skills and create delicious meals together. This can be a great way to develop life skills and independence.
- Sports & Games: Bowling, swimming, or even a friendly board game tournament – there’s something for everyone!
Socialisation and Connection
School holidays can sometimes lead to feelings of isolation for participants. Bharosa offers group programs that provide opportunities to socialise, make new friends, and build confidence.
Respite Care Services
For parents and carers, the school holidays can also be a time to recharge and take some well-deserved time for themselves. Bharosa offers respite care services through the NDIS, providing qualified and experienced support workers to look after participants while you take a break.
