Hi everyone, yes for sure it's been awhile since I posted, this is another youth group that I have been working within the high school here on Thursday Island in line with the NorMorSmok Program under Torres Health , I went on a camping trip 2 weeks ago outside of Tully in North Queensland to attend & help supervise high school aged Indigenous kids for JT Academy Believe Program to help kids in motivation & be confident & help build courage for themselves & getting them ready for the big life outside of school !! It's the man himself JT Johnathan Thurston 👍🏽👍🏽 I said sorry I am a Mad Brisbane Bronco's fan but do you mind if we can take a pic!! Lol😅😅😅😅😅😅 I thanked him for the work that he does & in return said the same thing back to me, I also presented with a program incentive fishing shirt of which he proudly wore the next day for our a trip to Dunk Island!! He is a North Queensland Cowboys/ Queenslander/Maroons ex Rugby League Player & a great role model for our Indigenous Communities 👌👍🏽💯 Thanks Joanna Dorante...

Hi to all you TIS workers out there its been a while since we posted no more working from home now we are officially back in the office & back to normal!! We spent the morning with Children ,Teacher's & parents to acknowledge Anti- Bullying Day & Closing the Gap 🟠🟠 at Sacred Heart Primary school here on Thursday Island, it was enjoyed by everyone, a majority of the children that visited our stall mentioned that they will not smoke when they got older & it's bad for your health & teeth & attempt to tell their parents to try to stop smoking as well!?? The only disappointment was that Malu Our NorMorSmok Mascot wasn't there😅😅
