Indigenous Youth Mobility Pathways Project

Adelaide Recreation 🙌🏽

This week, our IYMP Adelaide students took part in a hands-on wellbeing and life skills activity at Helens Mini Worlds in Prospect — designing and building their own terrariums.

Guided through the process, students selected their own jars, plants, and materials while learning how to care for their creations long-term.

Beyond the creativity, this activity also built practical skills, with each student working within a set budget and making thoughtful decisions along the way.

Experiences like this are what the Indigenous Youth Mobility Pathways Project is all about — supporting young Aboriginal and Torres Strait Islander people to build independence, confidence, and real-life skills while away from home.

A great day of learning, creativity, and connection — with something meaningful to take home and be proud of. 🌱

Easter at its best 🤩

At our Rockhampton site, staff and participants spent Good Friday at Yeppoon Lagoon leaving Rocky's heat to enjoy the cool weather from the sea.

Everyone enjoyed eating fish and chips, crayfish and easter eggs.
Girls sat around yarning, walks along the beach and music playing. Games were played: 5m touch, kick tennis and 1 touch volley passing.

It was a very relaxing day for everyone that was able to attend.

Easter Monday we celebrated Ciele's 19th birthday which was an absolute blast! We love creating unforgettable memories just like this with our participants. The environment it creates is like no other 🌟
