A new tab has been added to the website containing images and footage of open days at Willow Court. Many volunteers work hard to present lots of activities and learning experiences that are senstitive and respectful to the past history of the site. Run by the Friends of Willow Court Special Committee, open days are recorded here to show the new history and the positive work that a community is working towards. Open Days Tab

Polytechnic display
The Certificate 3 Disability Studies students put together a wonderful display from their recent Willow Court two day tour. There has been a lot of sensitive thought that has gone into the works which are on display in the Clarence Library at the Polytechnic. Well done guys, I’m impressed. People from the Disability Industry are welcome to visit the Campus and stroll through the work.
Cheers
Mark
