Hi all,
My daughter is 14 years old and on autism spectrum . I have problem with Sommerville special need school and principal as well as teachers are stopping me to be inside school and I feel really bad about this situation as I do not know how to support my daughter ( non verbal) inside school time - she is not fully supported and we had many problems there -.If someone can work for me 5 hours daily pls let me know and I can explain more. This is a details about school and my issues:
My daughter ended up going to Sommerville school as the lack of mainstream local school support for students with autism . The school has a lot of problems and when I asked teachers my concerns at the time of drop off my daughter to the classroom, they got really offended and finally after several weeks when I found how unacceptable behaviour and treats are around my daughter there, they wanted me not to find out more about their daily problems . So, practically they stopped me from going inside school to enjoy whatever they wanted to do with my non verbal daughter . I just want to know how you feel with your children's schools behind closed doors while they are nonverbal . I sent all evidence to M.O.E , Local M.P , My lawyer, Disability advocacy and more . I hope we find a solution for this system .

Social Media Hints and Tricks!

Director from TradieSocials

A great way to entice new followers and get your business in front of new eyes is to:
Tag other brands in your posts – for example, if you’re posting a picture of your work, you could tag the companies you bought the materials from. Then, they might share your post too!
Use relevant hashtags … View more
A great way to entice new followers and get your business in front of new eyes is to:
Tag other brands in your posts – for example, if you’re posting a picture of your work, you could tag the companies you bought the materials from. Then, they might share your post too!
Use relevant hashtags to get your business in front of others searching for those hashtags or similar ones. For example, if you share a before and after photo of a bathroom transformation you’ve worked on, tag #bathroominspo. If you need help finding relevant hashtags, you can use display purposes or another free hashtag-sourcing tool.

Use geotargeting and add your location so others can see your work areas and find your posts more easily.

Create engaging posts. Some social media platforms have features that allow your followers to engage with you quickly. Instagram Stories has many options for interactive stickers, such as polls, ask a question and quiz features, for example.

Put links to your social media profiles onto your business card, email signature, posters, van branding, and other social media profiles.

Ask your customers to share photos of your work on their social media profiles and tag you.

Downsize to a Richer, Happier Life

Bruce McLaren Retirement Village

What do you want to do with your life? Would you like to travel, downsize, have more money and more free time? Do you ever feel like your stuff holds you back, but the thought of decluttering just seems too hard? If so, you’re not alone.

What do you want to do with your life? Would you like to travel, downsize, have more money and more free time? Do you ever feel like your stuff holds you back, but the thought of decluttering just seems too hard? If so, you’re not alone.

This is the first of a series of articles dedicated to helping you to downsize, declutter and rightsize your life, brought to you by Ryman Healthcare in conjunction with decluttering expert Peter Walsh.

When helping people to declutter, Peter never starts by focusing on the stuff itself. Every item in your home has a story, so the first step is to think about what that story is.

Maybe you’re thinking about downsizing as you approach retirement but still have all the artwork and toys and books that belonged to your now adult children, and don’t know what to do with them. Perhaps letting go of that old sports equipment means letting go of a vision you had of yourself that no longer fits who you are. Maybe you’re holding onto heirlooms you have no use for because you want to keep the memory of the person alive.

No matter what your situation is, it’s easier to declutter and downsize if you start by identifying the feelings that underlie your attachment to your stuff before tackling the stuff itself.
