![Wrapped up our final activity of the year! I am humbled and grateful for all the positive feedback after serving 170 clients over the course of a week. The sessions were facilitated in small groups but this is my biggest collective client group thus far. I love the spontaneous display of autonomy and ownership in this short 4-second clip. Clients often enjoy helping us clean up after the session. Apart from these, we had many opportunities for reminiscing, social connections, exercising fine motor skills, and sensory stimulation - all through intentional facilitation. 👁️👂🏽👃🏽👄✋🏽🌻☘️🌼🪴
We'll be spending December doing stocktaking and administrative tasks, and enjoying the festive season! See you in 2026 - and dear mailing list subscribers, look out for our email soon! 😉

We entered the rainforest and were immediately welcomed by the drop in temperature and the mesmerising greater racket-tailed drongo which went unnoticed by many who sped past us. Thankful for the brief moments of awe. 🐦
