Today’s behaviour lesson focused on making positive choices and understanding appropriate actions. 🌟

Through fun pasting, sorting, and colouring activities, our learners explored different behaviours and practised identifying positive actions in everyday situations. These hands-on tasks helped develop critical thinking, decision-making, and social awareness while encouraging creativity and fine motor skills.

Learning through play makes every lesson meaningful! 🎨✂️🖍️

Building a Sustainable Future for Our Special Needs Young Adults

GivenGain campaign is the biggest fundraiser of the year and helps Place Of Purpose continue creating meaningful opportunities for young adults with intellectual disabilities and autism.

This year we are raising funds for:
☀️ Solar power to reduce operating costs
🛠️ Repairs to our workshop storeroom where students create products and earn stipends
These projects directly support our students, helping us keep programmes running, create work opportunities, and reduce financial pressure on families.

We only have 20 days left to reach our goal in support of Dr Meyer.

Please help by donating or simply sharing this post with your friends, family, businesses, churches, and community groups.
Together we can help secure our children’s future.
