Defence School Mentor News
Getting to know you games - crazy fun with the 'Who Am I' game, loom band decorating and some winter craft have kept us laughing and having fun at Kids Club this past fortnight.
It has been a pleasure spending time in the classrooms with many of the children, and in particular playing games and watching the development of their wonderful writing skills.
It was also a delight to host some of the parents for afternoon tea last Wednesday. Thank you for coming out on a cold winter's afternoon to meet me. I hope to meet more of you soon!

Kookaburra Kids
Connect Program - Initially developed to support Kookaburra Kids through the COVID-19 pandemic restrictions, the online Kookaburra Kids Connect program is accessible to all young people, no matter their location.
The Connect program has been developed with the intention of strengthening bonds between our young people before and between programs, to build safe and positive help-seeking behaviours, and increase their sense of belonging and connectiveness. All materials used throughout the connect program have been developed by their clinical team and are age appropriate.
This program has been particularly useful for children of defence families to help support and provide connection during times of relocation and change.
For more information email: connect@kookaburrakids.org.au or call 1300 566 525 or visit www.kookaburrakids.org.au
