Gallery: Treetop Adventure fun day out for mentoring kids
It’s the school holidays, which at SHINE for Kids means well-deserved fun days out for the kids in our Rise school mentoring program!
These activity days are our way of saying, ‘Great job this term and keep it up’ to the kids we work with.
They are always full of fun, laughter and new friendships that often last well into the future.
The kids had the BEST time at the Treetops Adventure park, and our team did their best to match their energy!!
Please donate today and help kids be kids, whatever they are going through.
