Thanks to our club member and Woodards Blackburn volunteers.

Our club has been pleased to support the MAT Life Skills Program at Roberts McCubbin Primary School providing 32 sessions in 2025 through $10,736 sponsorship.

Great to join the term 1 graduating group of 8 as they demonstrated skills learnt in the program. All the best to the term 2 participants.

The MAT Life Skills Program is an active modality that combines the principles of physical and mental wellbeing with those of therapeutic martial art training techniques. Its format engages and empowers young people to learn life skills and to better manage the challenges in their lives.

Thankyou Gay for representing our club as sponsor at the Box Hill Institute Student of the Year Awards.

Congratulations to Jasmyne Leahy (Certificate IV in Community Services), winner of the Koorie student of the year award, and runners up Owain Morton (Certificate III in Plumbing) and Mijawi White Bear (Certificated III in Floristry).

Our club has a 3 yer MOU with BHI for Koori Scholarships valued at $6,500pa.
