Ho ho ho!

 

Doing some painting!

Sports and Art!

Here I am paining flowers at Greerton Abilities Unleashed, got to put the right colours down the way I want them.

New sport at the centre: Noodle Hockey, our team won, I was goalie, nothing got past me, nothing.

 

Circability and Little Waihi

I went to circability at Memorial Park. It was fun playing different circus games. There was even a sausage sizzle.

I also went to Little Waihi for the afternoon and got to soak up some Vit D and chill by the water. 

 

Being Active!

Dancing, thank God there’s a fan!

Cheering on the Pentanque!

 

Rock star.

Very funny library visit. Cracking up at everything.

Here I am playing slide guitar, part of our musical for drama at the centre, I’m as good as Jimi Hendrix.

 

Fishing!!!

 

Here I am at the trout hatchery in Rotorua where they grow trout for fry to adults.

Also here at the park, uoskilling my ball skills.

 

Working hard or hardly working!

 

Sunbathing at the park, not during work time! But it was a nice hot day to get out. 

 

Here is a photo of me actually working, getting the supplies for the centre.

 

Trying to be a director.

Out n about around Te Puke. Always finding new paths here and there to explore.

This is my view of everyone at drama, this week they were busy creating a new production , they were very funny, and got all their lines wrong.  I had input of course, I have seen enough of their shows, to know who goes where and says what.

Paper boy!

Here we all are going for a walk near Te puke dog park, the weather was beautiful nice and hot.

This is Kyra and I, being paper boy and girl for our communication lesson. This is an important job and we have to pick up the Te Puke times.

 

Goals Goals Goals!!

One of my goals at Arohanui is to take up my feeding tube and cup after smoko in the morning.

Man it’s easier than I thought.

Another of my goals was to visit the Redwoods in Rotorua.

Here we are, the trees were massive.

 

Getting out despite the weather.

An afternoon at the Te Puke Bowling  playing pool and being with my mates.

This is me at the new park behind the Xmas shop,  if you come down here to buy stuff  you can a,so chill at the back.

 

Oh I like dancing!! And messing with gloop.

 This photo is from sensory, I’m messing about with some gloopy stuff in an ice cream container, I get to flex my fingers in it and it feels really cool.

 Here I am at I-dance. I get to do some cool dances and look at myself in a huge mirror. Nah, it’s great in that I can see others around me dancing in the mirror without me twisting my head off. We do mordern dance and also create our own dances.

 

Wild Wild West.

 Here is me and Bryn putting our make up on and looking real tough. We performed in the wild Wild West production and had a real howdy doody time, y’all.

 

Paying it forward

 

Out for a community walk and utilising a sunny day.

Cooking cookies for the neighbours, they’re builders and we decided to bless them.

 

New Roles!! 🤠🤠🤠

Here I am, settling into my new role as “Special Agent Sam” well maybe, you’re going to have to come to our end of the year concert to discover what I do for yourself.

One of my favourite things to do at the centre is to listen to comedy on YouTube, this cracks me up every time. 

 

Do the Mahi!

This is Tame, he’s one of my friends from a different centre, they all came over to visit us.

Here I am squirting someone, sorry I mean washing the van, they all merge into one after a while.

 

Mentoring and just winning at life.

Here I am at Baywave in my mentoring role, I coach the Te Puke swimming team.

Winning at pool is the best, here I am showing off my marvellous cue skills.

 

Daffodils!

On Wednesday we had to pick Daffodils up on a farm up Number 2 Rd.

Then yesterday, we went around Te Puke sailing to people in Te Pike, We raised about $300. A great effort.

 

Games Games!

 Here I am playing battleship, a cool inside game where we have to “bomb” the opposition.
