🖤💛❤️ Today starts Reconciliation Week ❤️💛🖤

This Reconciliation Week, let's bridge the gap between our past and our future. The 2025 theme, 'Bridging Now to Next,' asks us to reflect on the connection between Past, Present and Future and encourages us to work together to look ahead and move forward with our past lessons guiding our actions.

4gr recognise their role to play and strive to build respectful relationships that value Aboriginal and Torres Strait Islander Peoples, histories, culture and future. Reconciliation Week is a time for all Australians to learn, reflect, and take action. Join us in celebrating the resilience of Indigenous peoples and working towards a more equitable future for all.

🎤 From Player to Presenter: Jamie’s Powerful

🎤 From Player to Presenter: Jamie’s Powerful Advocacy Journey 🎮✨

Since joining 4gr Services, Jamie has taken remarkable steps in developing his skills and using his lived experience to educate and inspire others. Motivated by his personal story, Jamie has created and delivered a powerful presentation that explores the hidden risks of gambling-style features in modern video games — especially their impact on young people’s mental health and well-being.

What began as a personal reflection has grown into a compelling community education project. Through this process, Jamie has built key employability skills like:

🔹 Communication – crafting and confidently delivering his message to diverse audiences

🔹 Digital literacy – developing an engaging and informative PowerPoint presentation

🔹 Self-awareness – understanding his own experiences and translating them into advocacy

🔹 Initiative – taking the lead on an important issue affecting his generation

🔹 Leadership – inspiring others to learn, reflect, and take action

His presentation is already gaining interest from high schools, support services, and community organisations – and we couldn’t be prouder!

At 4gr, we believe real employability is about more than just getting a job – it’s about using your voice, passion, and skills to make a difference. Jamie, you’re doing exactly that. 💙

Last Wednesday 4gr were invited to be part of Nels

Last Wednesday 4gr were invited to be part of Nelson Park School Services Expo and we had the honour of hosting the Nelson Park Alumni Table.
This was a wonderful opportunity for past students to show the current school community what they have achieved since graduating.

4gr's very own Simon is a past student of Nelson Park school and was so excited to share his journey from school leaver to independent adult. Of course an extremely important part of the journey to independent, economic participation in community is securing employment, and we are delighted that Simon was able to share his employment pathway which led him to work for 4gr Customised Employment Specialists.

What an incredible ambassador Simon is for himself, Nelson Park School and of course now 4gr Customised Employment Specialists. We enjoyed speaking with everyone who stopped by to say hello.

Please reach out via email to Enquiries@4gr.net.au if you would like to learn more about customising your employment journey with the support of 4gr Customised Employment Specialists.
You will find us next at Geelong Disability Expo on the 14th and 15th of March.

🌟 Travel Training in Action! 🌟

At 4gr, we’re all about supporting independence and building confidence—both in the workplace and beyond. Recently, Director Beth took herself on a travel training adventure while in Adelaide! 🚋

Her journey started with catching a tram from Glenelg into Adelaide city, followed by a bus ride to Tea Tree Plaza, where she met up with 4gr Mentor Karolina. This hands-on experience highlighted the practical skills involved in navigating public transport—a vital step for gaining independence and confidence in getting to work.

So, why is learning how to use public transport such an essential skill? Here’s what it can build:

✅ Time Management: Knowing timetables, planning trips, and arriving on time are all critical work skills.

✅ Problem-Solving: What happens if a tram is delayed? Travel training builds adaptability to overcome transport challenges.

✅ Safety Awareness: Understanding how to stay safe in transit is key to fostering independence.

✅ Confidence & Independence: The more familiar you are with public transport, the more empowered you feel in your daily life and commute to work.

At 4gr, we incorporate travel training into our employment supports to help individuals gain these essential life and work skills. Empowering our clients with knowledge and practical experience is at the heart of what we do. 💙

If you’d like to learn more about how we build customised employment supports, including travel training, reach out to our team today!

🌟 Celebrating Rose’s Career Journey! 🌟

Rose is currently embracing not just one, but two work-integrated learning (WIL) opportunities as she explores her passion for helping both people and animals. 🙌

With the guidance of her mentor, Rose discovered that she thrives in roles where she can make a positive impact—whether it’s through providing compassionate care for residents at an aged care facility or caring for cats at Cherished Pets.

By taking on these two different WILs, Rose is gaining invaluable insights into the diversity of careers that align with her interests. Exploring multiple WILs is essential for building confidence and clarity about future job choices, as it allows participants to "try before you buy" and experience first hand what various roles are like.

Through her placements, Rose is also developing critical employability skills, including:

✅ Communication – Building trust and rapport with aged care residents, team members, and cat owners.

✅ Empathy and compassion – Providing emotional and physical support to those she serves.

✅ Adaptability – Learning to navigate the different needs and environments of each role.

✅ Teamwork – Collaborating with staff in both human care and animal welfare settings.

✅ Problem-solving – Managing challenges as they arise, from pet care routines to resident needs.

We’re so proud of Rose’s dedication, hard work, and openness to learning as she builds her future career path. 🎉 She’s making the most of every opportunity and excelling in both placements!

Keep up the incredible work, Rose—you’re an inspiration to everyone on their career exploration journey! 🌟

🌟 Work Integrated Learning Spotlight: Jaime 🌟

Towards the end of 2024, Jaime began a Work Integrated Learning Experience at the Geelong Art Gallery, securing a role in invigilation. 🖼

This opportunity has been transformative for him, and with help from the Geelong Art Gallery’s Youth Projects Coordinator, whose warm welcome and commitment to supporting Jaime’s employment goals has helped him to build his employability skills and overall confidence.📝

Throughout Jaime's time at 4gr, we’ve witnessed significant growth in several key areas, including his communication, confidence, time management, and self-management skills.
As he continues to thrive in this role at the Art Gallery, all parties are focusing on further enhancing Jaime’s confidence to engage with both visitors and staff, initiate conversations, and deepen his knowledge of the gallery’s artwork and current exhibitions.‍💡

Jaime’s polite and respectful manner, combined with his exceptional self-presentation, fills all of us at 4gr with immense pride. He is steadily moving closer to securing paid employment, and deserves nothing but the best in his future endeavors. 🎯
Jaime’s dedication with his Employment Mentor, his Employment Coaches, along with the Employment Support staff continue to be amazed in Jaime’s growth. He is a wonderful example of "whatever you put your mind to you can achieve".🌟

🚗💼 Road Trip to Adelaide – Connecting, Planning & Growing!

This week, 4gr Directors Beth & Gill hit the road to Adelaide to spend time with our incredible South Australia team! 🌟

Monday was all about strategic planning, mapping out the next 12 months to ensure we continue delivering high-quality, individualised employment support. Strategic planning isn’t just a business exercise—it’s how we stay responsive, innovative, and aligned with the needs of our participants and the ever-evolving employment landscape.

The rest of the week is all about connection and impact! We’ll be:

✅ Attending networking meetings to strengthen community ties

✅ Accompanying Employment Mentor Karolina on participant visits, gaining first hand insight into the work we do on the ground

✅ Spending time with State Manager Carolyn to hear first hand the successes and challenges of the South Australian job market

For a business like 4gr, where we support individuals across multiple locations, these in-person visits are essential. They:

🔹 Keep our team culture strong, ensuring everyone feels connected despite the distance

🔹 Allow us to see the impact of our work first hand, reinforcing our mission

🔹 Help us collaborate, problem-solve, and grow together

A huge shoutout to our SA team for their dedication—we’re excited for a great week ahead! 💙💼

🌟 Participant Spotlight: Will 🌟

At 4gr, we love celebrating the incredible achievements of our participants!

Recently, Will took a big step towards one of his goals: building independence through self-management. Will wanted to surprise his brothers with a delicious meal while his parents were away, and he was determined to make it happen!

To achieve this, Will explored recipes, chose to make a hearty Chili con Carne, and shopped for all the ingredients himself. With support, he cooked the meal from start to finish—and the result? A delicious dinner that his brothers absolutely loved!

But there’s more to this story than just a tasty meal. Through this activity, Will developed important employability skills, such as:

✅ Planning and organisation – selecting a recipe and preparing the steps.

✅ Problem-solving – navigating the supermarket to find the ingredients.

✅ Communication – asking for assistance when needed.

✅ Time management – cooking everything to perfection!

These skills are transferable to the workplace and bring Will closer to his goal of finding meaningful employment. Activities like these build confidence and independence, which are key to achieving success in both daily life and a future job.

👏 Well done, Will! Your determination to work towards your goals is inspiring, and we’re so proud to support you on this journey.

🌟 Celebrating Emma's Incredible Journey! 🌟

🌟 Celebrating Emma's Incredible Journey! 🌟

When we first met Emma, she was unsure about her career path and lacked motivation. However, with guidance to build her self-management skills, explore her interests, and recognise her abilities, Emma discovered her passion for supporting young children with learning difficulties. Inspired by her own experiences as a mum to three boys living with Autism, Emma wanted to make a difference in the lives of students with disabilities.

Emma took the courageous step of enrolling in a Certificate III in Education Support at The Gordon. Throughout her journey, Emma was supported by her dedicated mentor, Karyn, who provided encouragement, guidance, and practical advice every step of the way. With Karyn’s support, Emma navigated challenges, stayed focused, and built the confidence she needed to succeed.

Emma persevered through her studies, completed an impressive 120 hours of placement, and successfully earned her qualification! 🎓 She is now working toward her next goal—securing meaningful employment in the education sector, where her lived experience, dedication, and new skills will no doubt make a lasting impact.

Emma, your journey is an inspiration, and we are so proud of what you’ve achieved! A big shoutout to Karyn for being such a wonderful mentor and champion of Emma’s success. 💙👏

At 4gr, we’re so proud of Josh and his incredible journey to securing a volunteer position with genU, where he’s putting his IT skills to work on an exciting project at St Laurence Park Retirement Village in Lara.

Josh has always had a passion for computers—seeing them not just as screens, but as puzzles full of possibilities. After completing an IT course at The Gordon, Josh was eager to put his knowledge into action. That’s where we came in.
