We are thrilled to announce a one-of-a-kind opportunity for families seeking a sensory-friendly theatre experience which will take place on Saturday 18 November 2023 (1:30 pm) at Sydney's Capitol Theatre.

Loneliness is a feeling of emptiness that arises when our social needs aren't met by our current relationships. While everyone experiences loneliness at some point in their lives, certain groups may be more vulnerable to feelings of loneliness. It was previously believed that Autistic individuals preferred to be alone, but recent understanding has shifted.

Schools are more than just institutions of education; they are powerful ecosystems designed to provide a nurturing environment for every student to grow and thrive. This task becomes even more important when we consider students on the autism spectrum. Educators, families and the wider community should work together to ensure that a students' educational journey is not only enriching but also inclusive.

Mardi Gras 2023
For years I was a Mardi Gras spectator in awe of the sparkles, rainbows and everyone in the Parade being themselves. I spent years wishing I was in the Parade. This year, I too became a sparkly, rainbow covered human. I will remember for the rest of my life.
