Month of May

Image
  What a great month I have had. I have had a bit of practice at pool recently and am becoming quite the pool player. I have really been enjoying playing and getting better at aiming my shots and learning new skills along the way. I have also been going to the Greerton Hall on Thursdays for games, where the Willrose Centre meets us there. We listen to music, spend time together, and play lots of different games. My favourite game is tenpin bowling because it is always so much fun, and everyone gets really involved. There are always lots of laughs, and it is a great way to socialise and enjoy time with friends. We had a very special visitor to the centre when Devon Briggs came in and talked all about his sporting journey in paracycling. We asked him so many questions, and it was so inspiring to hear about everything he has achieved and the challenges he has overcome. It was really interesting listening to his experiences, and I enjoyed learning more about paracycling and his journey...

  Incredible work. I did lots of gardening at the Welcome Bay Community Centre, starting with weeds around the playground, then we moved hundreds of cabbage tree leaves from the eating area, and then, after lunch we tided the vege gardens and raked the beds ready for some new plants.  KB

Van washing

  I enjoyed scrubbing and hosing down the van! It was nice and clean in the end - TR

 I did a great job clearing out the weeds in the busy corner. It looks so much better now. Kb
