Therapy meets recreation in bright new program

Bright Sparks therapy-informed recreation

Fun-filled sessions of science, craft, cooking and more are helping kids reach their NDIS goals in the new Bright Sparks program.

The program, which has run in Werribee since 2019, provides a group therapy option for children on the waiting list to receive one-on-one sessions. A therapist customises the program based on each child’s NDIS goals and works with recreation staff to ensure those targets are embedded in each session. The therapist reviews children’s progress throughout the program, all while the kids are busy having a whole lot of fun.
