An Evening of Creativity and Fun @ Respite with Linda
This weekend at Respite with Linda, our all-girls group took a break from our usual Friday night routine of movie viewing and iPad sessions. Instead, we hosted our “Paint and Sip” event, which was a hit! The girls unleashed their inner artists, crafting stunning masterpieces. The mosaic effect created with masking tape was a favourite technique. They sipped on sparkling apple juice or cozy hot chocolate as they painted. We owe a big thank you to Rikki for suggesting this fantastic activity. It was a delightful evening filled with creativity, laughter, and beautiful artwork. Respite with Linda continues to be a place where girls can explore their talents and create lasting memories.
Baking Birthdays @ Respite With Linda
On Sunday, the children and the Team enjoyed a fun-filled day of outdoor activities. We kicked off the morning by heading outside to play basketball, and to make it even more special, Goldie, the Labrador, happily joined us. The afternoon took us to the All Abilities Playground at CREEC (Caboolture Regional Environmental Education Centre), where laughter and excitement filled the air. The Flying Fox provided thrilling adventures, the round-a-bout spun us into fits of giggles, and the swings added an extra dash of joy to our day. It was a perfect combination of active play and boundless laughter, creating cherished memories that will stay with us for a long time.
JEWELLERY MAKING (BEADING) WORKSHOP
Our beading workshop today was a memorable experience filled with creativity and camaraderie. Our talented teacher, Trish, warmly welcomed us and provided expert guidance throughout the workshop. With her brilliant instructions, we embarked on our beading journey.
The girls eagerly explored a wide array of vibrant beads, carefully selecting their favourites. With focused determination, they threaded
the beads onto special beading wire, weaving intricate patterns. Necklaces, bracelets, and earrings began to take shape, each piece
reflecting its creator's unique style and personality.
Midway through the workshop, we paused for a delightful lunch spread. Savoury platters, refreshing fruit, delectable dips, crunchy
crackers, and sweet slices delighted our taste buds, fuelling our artistic endeavours. As we journeyed to and from the workshop, a
lively trivia quiz added a touch of excitement. One of the girls assumed the role of quiz master, armed with her trusty phone as a
source of..
Intriguing questions. Laughter and friendly competition filled the air, making the car ride a memorable part of the outing.
The beading workshop allowed us to unleash our creativity, bond with one another, and create beautiful keepsakes. It was a day filled with joy, laughter, and the shared thrill of artistic expression.

The day began with a spirited round of bowling, where strikes and spares were celebrated enthusiastically. Laughter and friendly competition filled the air as the kids showcased their bowling prowess.
After working up an appetite, they relished a delicious lunch at Hungry Jacks, refuelling their energy for the next adventure.The group then made their way to Morayfield's newest attraction, Bounce! The trampoline park was a haven of excitement as the girls bounded, flipped, and jumped across the array of trampolines.
Their thrill continued with spirited games of Dodge Ball, showcasing their agility and reflexes.
To add a touch of adventure, they took on the challenge of wall climbing, conquering obstacles and reaching new heights. The day
at Bounce provided a fantastic blend of physical activity, laughter, and camaraderie.
