Warrah executive Alida Pruys addresses guests at the John Paul Discovery Centre.
Improving our systems, processes and facilities
The John Paul Foundation Discovery Centre at Warrah was opened on Friday, 1st April 2022. The new centre will be used to deliver Warrah’s Discovery program. Discovery is a tailored program for school leavers, designed to deliver individualised plans that support the transition to adult life while building on skills developed at school. We are proud to provide young adults living with disability in northwest Sydney access to more opportunities and are grateful for the support of Holdmark Property Group.
Warrah school graduate and CSS participant Zac gains work experience at the Warrah Farm Shop.
In May, we commenced a bathroom renovation in the south wing of the Banksia community centre. This updated bathroom is designed to meet modern accessibility standards. It will cater for participants and their changing needs well into the future with the capacity to cater for a change table and a hoist.
Kevin enjoys his afternoon at Waaia.
At the commencement of 2022, 30 laptops were purchased and distributed to all program areas across CSS to be used by staff for better access to our client management system CTARS and
to support the introduction of Microsoft Teams across the organisation. These laptops have allowed us to increase efficiency and further progress our goal of becoming a paperless service area.
