A link between two Darley Neighbourhood House course programs is bridging the gap between adults with disabilities and students.<\/p>\n

The Avenue Group, which provides an alternative program to secondary students not suited to the school environment, has teamed up with members of the Creative Art Disability Group.<\/p>\n

Members of the two groups join together on a Friday afternoon and take part in a variety of art and craft activities.<\/p>\n

Hope, the creative art disability group tutor, said after being the only class instructor for the past 13-years, it was great to have some fresh new faces.<\/p>\n

\u201cIt\u2019s a fabulous collaboration between the two groups and it\u2019s very beneficial for the students to be a part of a community,\u201d she said.<\/p>\n

\u201cThe students are very sensitive to the needs of those in the [creative art disability] group; we have some people that are non-verbal but the students have learnt to read them and can now confidently converse with them\u201d.<\/p>\n

The two groups met at Darley Neighbourhood House on Friday (November 18), where they made and decorated their own dreamcatchers.<\/p>\n

Avenue Group Tutor, Tabatha said the collaboration had a number of invaluable benefits.<\/p>\n

\u201cIt\u2019s giving these students, who for whatever reason are just not suited to the normal school environment, a sense of independence. It teaches them organisation and communication skills and enables them to learn the value of patience,\u201d she said.<\/p>\n

\u201cIt has also provided a stepping stone for future pathways to two particular students, who are now seeking a future in the community and educational sectors.<\/p>\n

\u201cThese are a really good bunch of kids and when they walk out of this program at the end of the day they are proud and that is something a lot of them have never felt before\u201d.<\/p>\n","protected":false},"excerpt":{"rendered":"
