Programs in Term 3 2025 at Waminda!
Term 3 has kicked off to a great start. Download here
This term, we have brought back singing, dancing and Yoga to Waminda House.
Whether you're looking to LinkUp with other adults, learn some new tech skills (for over 50s), or need some support, we've got a program for you.
We have a special program for children this term: Dream, Design, Build. Kids will be working with Tomorrow Today, on their dream home, and they will then get to build a demo using various materials in the lead up to Science Week. Their numeracy will be put to the test as will their imagination on what is possible. This project is incorporating our usual Reading Buddies class and Anganya Program.
With lots of collaborations this term, we look forward to what we will achieve.
Be Connected - building digital skills for over 50's
This program is simple - it's providing free tech support to people over 50. The program aims to build digital literacy skills and confidence using the Be Connected Learning site. Support can be provided 1 on 1 or as a group. The type of support provided is guided by what people need and want to learn.
