What to Expect
Welcome to Tuesdays in our Johnny H Life Skills Day Program. Our day is split into two: capacity-building activities in the morning and social inclusion/community in the afternoon. The day includes morning and afternoon tea as well as a weekly menu which is organised by the staff but prepared by the course participants (where suitable) as part of their personal development. Our Term 1 program runs for 12 weeks.
Morning Activity
Our mornings focus on enhancing individual skills through a variety of activities aimed at increasing self-awareness and practical life abilities. Over the 12-week term, each day we will focus on a specific topic to ensure clients gain both understanding and hands-on experience, including:
Problem Solving: Teaches how to approach challenges with a structured method.
Decision Making: Follows problem solving to help clients make thoughtful and informed choices.
Money Recognition: Introduces the basic concept of money, helping clients identify different denominations.
Money Management: Expands on money recognition, focusing on budgeting and saving skills.
Price Comparison: Teaches clients how to assess value and make informed purchasing decisions.
Hygiene: Establishes personal care routines that are essential for maintaining a healthy lifestyle.
Healthy Lifestyles (Exercise/Health): Encourages physical well-being through regular exercise and healthy living habits.
Social Skills: Builds effective communication, empathy, and respect for others in social situations.
Risks: Focuses on identifying potential dangers and making safe choices in various environments.
Afternoon Activity
On Tuesday afternoons, we dive into hydrotherapy for a fun and refreshing workout. Participants enjoy the benefits of water-based exercise, cooling down in the pool while engaging in energetic activities with friends. This session promotes fitness, relaxation, and social connection in a supportive environment.
We do our best to minimise any changes but plans may be forced to change due to external staffing, school holiday programming and adverse weather.
