Happy Psychology Week 2024 🥰. This year's theme is 'Psychology and the environment'. When we consider effective ways to support autistic young people, we know the important role that the environment of our classrooms, schools, homes, and communities plays in success and well-being. We value everything that our psychology colleagues bring to our work, every day ☀️

Such an honour to have the Indonesian Consular General, Listiana Operanta to open our first workshop for the Indonesian Community in Perth this week. The parents were excited to share and learn together. Listiana Operananta
