🔵 On Monday, the CCA Printable team were lucky to have their very own private lesson in traditional Chinese Painting. Guest teacher Ming gave an incredible demonstration of traditional techniques and then guided the group through painting their our own artworks and fans. They are now looking forward to implementing some of these techniques and imagery into future Printable creations.

🟠 A big thank you to Ming for her time and expertise. Also a shout out to Steven for translating on the go from Mandarin to English. What an incredible and enriching experience for our team. ⭐

🔴 Our Hub group had a fantastic time celebrating Red Nose Day today and learning about what the day means, getting a little silly with their red noses and of course, enjoying plenty of laughter along the way!

Days like this are a great opportunity to connect, try new things and enjoy experiences together. They are a reminder that support is about more than just the activity itself. It’s about building confidence, connections, friendships and a sense of belonging.

⭐️A day at the Parliament of NSW

Our Hub Group had the wonderful opportunity to visit Parliament House, thanks to an invitation from Donna Davis MP.

For the group, it was about more than simply visiting an important building. It was a chance to explore, learn, ask questions and experience a part of our community that many of us may not otherwise have had the opportunity to visit.

We’re grateful for the warm welcome and for everyone who helped make the day possible and a big shout-out to our support team and carers for all the planning and coordination behind the scenes!

A very memorable day!

The Printable Team recently enjoyed a wonderful visit to the Powerhouse Museum in Castle Hill.

We were incredibly grateful for the private tour and insightful discussion with the museum’s dedicated volunteers and staff. Their knowledge, enthusiasm and welcoming approach made the experience both enjoyable and informative.

Some of the highlights included exploring fascinating historical objects and seeing an impressive collection of trains, cars, buggies and other remarkable vehicles.

Thank you to the Powerhouse Museum team for such a memorable and enriching experience!

A great reminder this week of how important local connections are. Thanks to Donna Davis MP for taking the time to visit our Parramatta office to learn more about the work we do and meet with our staff and some of the great people we support.

Thanks for the invitation to visit Community Connections Australia (CCA).

CCA connects people living with disability to a diverse range of tailored and personalised disability services in NSW.

It was great to meet up with Rodney, Estela and the entire group to hear their concerns about a wide range of practical measures that could be adopted by government to support people with disability.

One request was to arrange a visit to Parliament so that is next on my to do list!!

We celebrate the 5.5 million Australians with disability and everyone working to create inclusive communities. Together, we can make inclusion a reality, not just a goal.

🎬 What is important to you?

“Values like dignity, independence, accessibility and inclusion often resonate.

It is important to us that society sees us as equals with the same dreams and rights.”

🔵🟠Inclusion isn’t just about ramps or policies, it’s about small everyday actions: listening, inviting and making space for everyone. Let’s all do our part.

What makes us happy?
Spending time with family and friends, pursuing hobbies, achieving goals or simply being included and respected.
This reminds others that happiness is universal,
not defined by ability!
