Extraordinarily Creative Drama Classes

We are thrilled to support Tim Bray Theatre Company with Extraordinarily Creative,  drama classes for those children and teens who are differently wired. A positive and fun programme in a safe and nurturing environment where children can use the creativity of drama and theatre to enhance their life skills and express themselves in extraordinary ways.

These classes are for ages 5-7yrs, 8-10yrs, 11-13yrs and 14-16yrs and based on the North Shore and Glen Innes.

Scholarships are available for families experiencing financial hardship, kindly funded by Stewart Germann administered by Cognition Education Trust.

Follow this link to find the class to suit your child and send the team at Tim Bray Theatre Company an expression of interest.

Supporting

Girls with Autism are often diagnosed much later than most boys, and sometimes not at all.

  • Understand more about girls on the Autism Spectrum and how they may differ from boys.
  • Learn tips & strategies to help girls to navigate those tricky adolescent/teenage years.
  • Share your experiences with other parents & caregivers who are going through similar challenges and highlights as you

Make yourself a coffee or tea and join us on Zoom for a virtual meet-up.  Our Family Consultant Jeanita Cush-Hunter is passionate about equipping our girls and young women with skills for life & will be on hand to guide discussion and answer your questions.

This is a great place to share experiences, ask questions, discuss issues, and learn from each other.

This online group has been made possible by a grant from the Ministry of Women, enabling Children’s Autism Foundation to provide support to New Zealand women.

UPCOMING MEETING DATES (usually 2nd Thursday of each month) 7.30pm to 8.30pm
Thursday 15th July
