Services for Children

In addition to in-home respite services for children ALARA provides the following services for children and families in the Lockyer Region:

Lockyer MegasportsLockyer School Holiday Program

ALARA operates a vacation care program on selected days over each school holiday period. Priority for this program is given to eligible high school aged children with a disability residing in the Lockyer area. Referral for this program is via the DS service pathway. There is no daily cost for the program however there may be costs associated with some activities e.g. entry fees for excursions.

Lockyer Children’s Megasports

Megasports Lockyer is held at Luke’s Place Lockyer on a Saturday once a month from 10.00 to 1.00pm. The program is for children with a disability and their siblings who are aged 5-12 years and is designed to promote health, fitness and group interaction. Parents are invited to stay and meet each other socially or they can drop off and pick up their children at the end of the activity. This program is funded under Disability Services’ Flexible Respite for Children Initiative.
