We’re down to the last few tables for Quiz Night!

If you’d love to join us but don’t have a full table of ten, reach out — we’ve had others ask the same, and we’re happy to help create mixed tables.

It’s a wonderful way to meet new people and be part of a fun, inclusive night.

We’re reaching out to our Deaf and Hard of Hearing community, families & professional network.

We are currently looking for work placement and post school pathway opportunities for Deaf/HoH students in the following areas:
• Beauty
• Trades
• Hospitality

If you know a Deaf-friendly business or someone who is open to supporting a Deaf/HoH student, we would love to connect. You will be supported by the school with the information and support the student needs.

We are expanding our contacts to help our young students explore new opportunities, follow their dreams, and pursue their chosen career fields.

If you can help, please comment on the post or email us directly at [email protected]

Don’t miss out — tables for Quiz Night are filling fast!

Expect laughs, friendly competition, great prizes, and a special round hosted by our Deaf Mentors. An Auslan interpreter will be present, making the night accessible for everyone.

Our volunteers are working hard behind the scenes to secure amazing donations and prizes — so be there if you want to win big.

Quirky table names and dress‑ups are welcome too — the more creative, the better.

Bring your friends, family, workmates, trivia experts, and that one person who always seems to know the most random facts.

We just wrapped up our 11th Deaf Strengths Camp at Forest Edge Recreation Camp School… and WOW, what a week!

From painting the world’s sassiest giraffes to dressing up in nothing but newspapers and lots of sticky tape, plus games that had everyone laughing one minute and crying happy tears the next - the camp filled everyone's cup of tea.

Our Deaf Role Models, volunteers, and incredible young people created a community that felt like one big family. This is what our camps are all about.

Check out the photos, you will know what I mean!
Hearts full. Smiles real. Memories made.
