Makerspace creative workshop: Design your unique Apron

Choose the purpose for your apron, whether it’s for creating art, working in the garden, kitchen or your woodworking space, or it may be for a special costume - the ideas are endless.
You will be able to select from a range of fabrics available including floral, plain or geometric or alternatively, bring along your own fabric or upcycling an old garment you no longer wear and help reduce the impact of fast fashion in our landfill.
Learn to sew hems, trims, straps and pockets by machine.
Sewing machines available to use, most other equipment provided.

Upcoming Events:
Supporting those with Trauma Workshop Series
We will be holding a series of sessions around this important topic, which is affecting so many. The impact of Trauma can be significant. Providing quality care needs a workforce that can evaluate and implement effective strategies to create a safe and rewarding environment.
Postponed to 30 June 2025
Due to the recent unfavourable weather currently hitting the mid north coast,
we have made the decision to postpone this event until June 2025.
Session 2 - Recognising Trauma for Adolescents
Our next workshop is around recognising trauma in adolescents and how we can support those teens with mental and/or physical trauma.
This three hour workshop covers the basics of Adolescent Mental Health and Wellbeing, with an added focus on the role of Carers. It is designed to act as a Workbook & Ongoing Reference List for Restorative Approaches to:
-
Immediate and medium term Supportive responses to Trauma, plus
-
Considering the Involvement (or not) of peers, families and carers.
These relationships with adolescents can trigger incidents such as:
-
physical violence; cross-generational clashes; social media bullying; self harm; manipulative peer pressure; shutting down and isolating behaviours.
We will cover how best to respond to behavioural outbursts, and how to create person-valuing, group building, supportive recovery environments.
-
Your Lived Experience will be valued, in a supportive & confidential setting.
Places are limited...
