Social Group clients enjoy a tour of the Capricorn Caves.
FROM morning teas to musical afternoons, mystery tours, arts and crafts and even movie days, CentacareCQ Social Groups are a kaleidoscope of excitement.
Here’s just a snippet of what our clients get up to on their adventures.
Rockhampton Social Group News:
AMIDST the monthly event calendar, clients enjoy getting away and seeking adventure in the form of the Tropical Wanderers group. In recent times, the group has ventured to many places throughout the region including Waterpark Creek and the Marlborough Museum.
Every second Thursday the Rockhampton Social Group stretch their vocal chords for some joyous singing at The Uniting Church.
The Sing 4 Health is a popular activity among current group goers and we can always use more voices in the future. Singing normally follows with a mouth-watering meal at the Capricorn Tavern.
Another popular adventure is the monthly Mystery Tours. Groups have ventured to Tannumn Sands, Turkey Beach and even the Gladstone Botanical Gardens.
CQUniversity Occupational Therapy Students have been running morning teas with our clients over the last month.
Activities such as making drums and maracas have been a blast among attendees. Rockhampton Social Groups welcome new members to the events and activities they hold. Private clients are also welcome to attend.
