Hamilton VRC have recently started a new Transition Immersion Group for children on our caseloads that are attending school from Year 9 to Year 13.
Kathryn Leonida is using this as part of her 2019 Inquiry:
“Skills and attributes, mentors and making connections” is the theme. It includes:
- Living independently (eg. self-care, food prep, chores, budgeting, planning, shopping)
- Travelling independently (eg. transport, road crossings, reading maps, using technology – all of which includes DOM skills)
- Working independently (eg. skills and attributes, exploring voluntary work, exploring career choices, exploring study choices)
- Social skills (eg. friendships, networking, mentoring)
- Leisure activities (eg. exploring options, making connections with people who can assist)
