Whangarei LYNKZ Programme — Quarter 4, 2019

Summer Loving

LYNKZ Regular Opening Hours: Monday to Thursday, 9am - 2pm

Term 4 – A warm hello and welcome to our new whanau and clients. It has been an awesome Term 4 we had some exciting learning adventures while heading in to the future. We were lucky to have Circability with Thomas & Tony in our facility who provided social, low impact circus arts and intervention-based activities that directly address social needs. They did this by increasing confidence, energy and creativity. Over the last few months, all of our clients have been working through careers booklets, life skills and goals and aspirations to start them thinking about future pathways. This focuses on helping them to learn more about values, interests and personal characteristics which will help steer them towards life choices. We would like to congratulate Billie, Celeste, Timoti & Nigel for their outstanding achievement in landing part-time employment. 10 clients were selected to partake in a Fashion Show organized by Tiaho Trust over 200 people attended the show was a great success. Well done to all involved We are also excited to Welcome Storm as the new LYNKZ facilitator. We know she is going to be a valuable asset to LYNKZ and we can’t wait to see what you accomplish.

IMPORTANT INFORMATION:

Split activities in the programme marked with an asterisk (*).

Alternative activities will be offered for those who remain on site.

If there is an activity cost that Support Workers are required to

pay, this is to be organised with clients/families. LYNKZ is not

responsible for paying any activity costs for Support staff. It will be

clearly noted on the programme as per person when everyone is

required to pay.

OUTINGS: Due to a lot of outings requiring group payment, could

clients please bring cash to pay for the trips. This ensures all costs are

paid at the time. Payment is required on the day—Unless specific

Information on external outings/one off trips. Information and

quarter Consent Forms will be given out for every external outing that

involves medium level risk or higher. Any further information and

information regarding low level activities can be discussed at the client

meeting and notes will be made on the board at LYNKZ. Alternatively

feel free to discuss any questions or concerns with either of the LYNKZ

facilitators.

Client / Family / Support Worker Feedback. Feedback on any

aspect of the LYNKZ programme/service is warmly invited. Simply

place any written feedback in the blue mailbox by the sign-in/

information board at LYNKZ.

Please Note:

If there is an external trip/activity planned on the weekly

programme, the LYNKZ premises will be closed.

If you do not wish to attend the planned activity, then you will need

to make other arrangements. We apologize for any inconvenience.

If weather conditions prevent an external trip/activity from taking

place, the programme will be based at the LYNKZ building.

If you are running late for an activity or plan to meet at an event,

please let staff know. If there is any change in the programme we

will notify you as soon as practicable.
