The 4th year Occupational Therapy students, Ava, Emma, Felicity and Amy, from ACU have developed a 10-week group program for adolescents to build their independence in life skills. 🍳🛀🧹

This program aims to address adolescents aged 11-17 who would like to improve their independence in meal prepping, cooking, laundry, cleaning and self-care through fun activities. This group will also promote social skills in adolescents, providing a fun space to interact with others.

Their presentation today outlined their project to many of the Sunshines staff members. We loved hearing all about this new project that we will implement next year.

If you have any queries about this new project, feel free to contact us!
For now, stay tuned as we release more information!

POV: You’re the calm in their chaos 😌

Co-regulation isn’t about telling a child to calm down,, it’s about showing them they don’t have to navigate big feelings alone.
Because sometimes little nervous systems need a little help from a bigger one!

✨Connect before you correct.
✨ Regulate together before expecting independence.
✨ You don’t have to be a perfect parent, educator or therapist - just a safe person.

Regulation is something we learn through connection, not something we should have to figure out alone.

It’s a Sunshines 2026 Halloween in the clinic today 👵🏼👴🏼 Nothing serious, just fun! Works out really well with our Occupational Therapy week celebrations as this years theme is ‘Participation Matters’

How can OTs help with older adults? 👵🏽👴🏼🧓🏽
• Removing environmental barriers to community life. OTs help by preserving transit autonomy, auditing local spaces and adapting their volunteering and work styles.

• Modifying hobbies and social life. OTs help break down complex leisure activities into manageable parts. They help by implementing adaptive leisure gear, energy pacing for social outings and using digital means to support inclusion.

• Shared planning. OTs help Older Adults understand that they are the Director of their own therapy goals. They support through goal setting not deficit fixing and support through understanding the Older Adults identify from being lost to age or illness.

It’s Occupational Therapy week and here at Sunshines, we are so lucky to have our team of OT’s. Especially when we joke with them! It’s only fair that we shine a light on them and celebrate how essential they are and the work that they do.

Occupational Therapy Week 2026 takes place from 26 October - 1 November 2026. This years theme is “Participation Matters,” highlighting how engaging in everyday activities, roles, and routines is fundamental to health, wellbeing, and a sense of belonging.

Know an OT? Don’t forget to give them a little extra love this week! 🧠🧩✍️

🎉 Today marks one year of supporting our big and little friends in our new clinic! 🌻

Did you know that October is an incredibly important month? Not to just celebrate the birthday of your favourite people or even to get some extra lollies BUT, it’s also a month to learn, recognise and celebrate the disability community.

Our list is not the complete list of what is recognised in the month of October, let alone the people, team and carers that support the disability community, but here are Sunshines we recognise the achievements and experiences of people with disabilities and the communities that support them.

Let’s take some time today, this month and even throughout the year to learn, listen, understand and celebrate. 🤲🌻💓
