Oh to be a Banksia Menziesii blooming on top of a hill, swaying in the wind, and being greeted by bees..
🌿🐝🌿
This week our practitioners have been reflecting on ADHD self-care, wellness, and support that can be integrated into everyday life and the simple moments. One of the first things that came to mind was mindful and somatic strategies intertwined with your individual interests and glimmers ✨
Today, we invite you to listen to the wind, observe the flowers, breathe and taste the fresh air, touch your natural surroundings, and observe any shift in your body 🌿☺️

Exploration 🤝 Connection

Our OT peer groups are all about discovering nature and chasing adventure, together. Think climbing, creating, collaborating, noticing, scootering, and play aimed to uplift confidence, connection, and form deeper understanding of self, nature, and others 🌿🍄

🌿🍄 Term 3 OT Playgroup 🍄🌿
Join us in our expanding and OT-supported playgroups where you and your child can access a neuroaffirming, play and nature-based environment where all ways of being, communicating, connecting, and engaging are celebrated and uplifted.

Our sessions focus on connection, co-regulation, and building confidence through meaningful play, set at each child’s pace. Think muddy hands, movement, sensory-safe moments, and authentic peer connection (for both parents and kids) all alongside supportive, attuned OTs 🌿

Term 3 & July School Holiday enrolment now open!

What better way to model body awareness, coordination, sensory and emotional regulation, and body confidence than a tightrope challenge?

🌿TEENS AND TWEENS NATURE GROUP🌿
A space to show up as you are, connect with others, and build confidence through shared fun and play. Our child-led, neuro-affirming sessions meet young people where they’re at, whether it be skate park hangs, walk & talks, arts and crafts, an intense game of Chameleon, or simply being our authentic selves in nature, together.
These weekly Nature Group sessions aim to gently support meaningful peer connections in a safe, inclusive environment!
Term 2 enrolment now open!

🌿 SENSORY SWINGS 🌿
What better way to begin a TTN Nature Group session?
Tuning into our bodies through proprioceptive input and taking a moment to unwind after a busy day at school.
🐨🍄🐨
We love to make space for gentle regulation. Whether that’s solo, side-by-side, or connecting with peers! Our sensory swings provide every child a chance to settle in, slow down, feel safe, and gently transition into the afternoon ☀️
