The Luke Priddis Foundation was started in 2006 after Luke and Holly’s third child, Cooper was diagnosed with Autism Spectrum Disorder (ASD). Luke and Holly wanted to create a centre where children with ASD can access high quality services.
A key area developed at the foundation is our support groups for autistic children. These support groups enable families to come together in an informal setting to be with other children and families with similarities. We’re looking for students to join us to create a welcoming environment that allow everyone to be comfortable being themselves.
Students will engage and assist children during after school social groups. Group activities include; Lego masters, cooking, coding and arts and crafts.
