WORK ORDERED DAY
When a member joins
Canefields Clubhouse he/she can choose a unit that
they would like to work in. However there is always
the choice available to work for another unit at any time.
Units in the Clubhouse vary,
at Canefields Clubhouse we have
three (3) units, The
Employment and
Education Unit, The
Administration Reception and
Technologies Unit, and The
Catering Unit.
All units have certain responsibilities within the the Clubhouse that
are vital to the functioning of the whole Clubhouse, such as without the
Catering Unit we wouldn't
get lunch, without the
Employment and Education Unit
we wouldn't be able to have proper support for our
Transitional
Employment, or
Supported
Employment, and with
the
Administration
Reception and Technologies Unit
we couldn't Organise Social recreations, have a Newsletter, or
even have records for members kept organised and filed.
Each unit has a
leader who is responsible for ensuring that members who wish to be
involved in the unit have the opportunity to access those activities
which interest them. Work in each unit is a shared experience with
staff and members working together to perform all tasks including
maintenance and cleaning.
Canefields
Clubhouse
members also have the opportunity to participate in supervised
paid work to regain confidence and self esteem through our
Transitional
Employment programs.
Once members
feel fully confident and qualified to work they can then look at getting
a full time or part time job.
EDUCATION &
TRAINING
Members can also
participate in in-house training and educational courses such as
computer courses and first-aid courses. Educational classes are
also available as the Clubhouse has links with various educational
agencies including Eagleby Learning Centre, TAFE and the local
Universities.
