The Statement of Acknowledgement (Kaurna – Adelaide):
We acknowledge this land that we meet on today is the traditional lands for the Kaurna people and that we respect their spiritual relationship with their country.
We also acknowledge the Kaurna people as the custodians of the Adelaide region and that their cultural and heritage beliefs are still as important to the living Kaurna people today.
We also pay respects to the cultural authority of Aboriginal people visiting/attending from other areas of South Australia/Australia.
The Junction Community Centre
Junction Community Centre has for over 30 years provided the local community with a range of activities, workshops and classes.
Junction Community Centre is a place where you can meet, join a class or workshop, throw a party and more!
We welcome all people in the community to take part, have fun and learn from the many activities held at the Junction and supported by our culturally diverse community groups.
Junction Community Centre is a popular venue for people from our multicultural community who attend the various courses, classes, functions and parties. Many classes are in high demand. New activities & courses are regularly added to the program.
On our Facebook page you will find updates and information about our classes and groups. You are able to connect with other people who attend groups or classes at the Junction Community Centre.
Here’s a challenge for all of us! During Ageing Well Week (THIS WEEK), we must all try to somehow connect with someone new or perhaps help connect them to community! It can be at our free BBQ THIS Thursday or it could be as simple as a quick chat at the supermarket or attending a community centre to partake in an activity/know what services are available. These simple actions help reduce social isolation and improve their sense of safety - which become increasingly important as we age.
Congratulations to Joy on the 9th anniversary of being a Zumba Instructor! She brings the happiness to wherever she goes! Packed house as always!
Please join us for a BBQ on THURSDAY Sept 24th (see previous post) AND for our monthly Community Lunch on FRIDAY Sept 25th.
Have you ever tried Tai Chi? It’s a martial art that is now widely practiced as a gentle, low-impact mind-body exercise. We offer it on Wednesdays at 10am (chair based) and Thursdays at 2pm (standing position) during school term. $5/class. Join at any time.
What a perfect day! We partnered with Reem and Fabio from Uniting SA to introduce their housing clients to the Junction by showcasing a few activities. We had Yoga in the crèche, 1:1 digital literacy in the Outreach Rm, craft and 3D miniature painting in the hall, NEAMI’s Art Therapy (bilateral drawing) in the Training Room, Zumba in the carpark PLUS a bbq lunch in the front garden bed! If you want to discover something new or still don’t know what we do - please pop in!
