About this Event
Join us for a casual monthly after-school meet up for Autistic and Neurodivergent school-aged children and their carers. Meet up with peers and engage with a variety of hands-on activities and resources in an inclusive, welcoming space.
E ach month, different activities and resources will be available for Neurodivergent children of all ages to explore alongside their peers. This is not a staffed event, rather a space will be set up and resources laid out for children and their carers to engage with freely. Staff will be available to assist with queries and offer guidance.
Rotating activities may include LEGO, open-ended craft and follow-along templates, card and boardgames, building blocks and planks, puzzles, robots and gaming options, clay, graphic novel creation and reading stations and more. If there is something your child is passionate about that you would like to see included in the rotation, please let us know.

AUGUST 21st ACTIVITY: PUZZLES, CARD AND BOARDGAMES

For our October Meet we will also have representatives on-hand from the NDIS team at Latrobe Community Health Service, available to chat and answer any questions you might have about accessing NDIS, queries about a current plan, or any general questions about the scheme or local supports. The desk will be staffed from 1:30pm-4:30pm.
NOVEMBER 20th ACTIVITY: GLASS JAR LANTERNS *must be actively supervised by carer
------------------------------------------------
Leongatha Library is an inclusive space, and positively engaging with each other is much more important than keeping quiet. However, children must be supervised at all times by their carers.
W e will do our best to ensure this listing is kept updated prior to each month's meet up with the details of the activity on offer. We will always try to give forewarning and keep changes to a minimum, however, sometimes last minute changes are unavoidable. Families are welcome to contact the branch directly with any questions or concerns.
If you require more information, please phone us on 5662 4829.
