We empower people with disabilities
to realise their full potential.
At The Lighthouse Centre, we may not be a traditional academic centre — but we are a place of purpose, learning, and joy. We focus on teaching practical, everyday skills in a supportive environment where having fun is just as important as personal growth. We provide a safe, inclusive space where your loved ones can be themselves, free from judgement, and fully engaged in meaningful activities.

About Us
Since opening in 2022, the The Lighthouse Centre Centre has become a vibrant space for individuals aged 9 and up with mental and physical impairments. Through activities like cooking, crafting, sewing, gardening, and more, we turn everyday skills into tools for independence, confidence, and creativity. Our centre is a safe, inclusive environment where participants grow, connect, and thrive — and where parents can rest easy knowing their loved ones are supported and celebrated. At The Lighthouse Centre, every day is a fun day — and every ability is valued.
Activities
Exercise & Boccia
Physical activity is essential for well-being. From gentle stretches to competitive Boccia (an adaptive sport like bowls), our programs promote mobility, teamwork, and inclusive play.
Dance & Movement
We offer fun, energetic sessions that combine movement, music, and rhythm — encouraging physical activity, body awareness, and joyful expression.
Gardening
Gardening helps participants connect with nature while learning responsibility and patience. They plant, water, and care for herbs, flowers, and vegetables in our planter boxes.
Sewing
Our sewing workshops teach basic techniques such as threading, stitching, and hand-finishing. These skills allow participants to create their own fabric projects with pride.
Woodwork
Our woodwork sessions teach participants how to cut, sand, drill, and varnish — turning raw materials into clocks, trays, toys, and more. These hands-on skills build confidence, coordination, and creativity.
Arts & Crafts
From painting to handmade décor, our arts and crafts sessions encourage self-expression and fine motor skills. Every piece tells a story — and many are sold at local markets to support the creator.
Located in New Germany, our centre welcomes individuals aged 9 and up with physical or mental disabilities, offering a warm, inclusive environment where each day is filled with growth, fun, and community through workshops that build independence, foster friendships, and inspire self-belief.
Our Centre
The The Lighthouse Centre Centre is fully equipped to support a wide range of activities in a safe, inclusive environment. Our space includes workshop areas for woodwork and crafts, a kitchen for cooking and baking sessions, a Boccia court for physical activity, therapy-friendly spaces, accessible bathrooms, and peaceful outdoor areas for gardening and relaxation. Everything is designed with care to meet the needs of individuals with physical and mental disabilities.
