Creating Welcoming Spaces
We are reimagining and redesigning all the spaces across our organisation.
We took down the old reception area and replaced it with plants and chairs that invite everyone to stop and take a breather in the air-conditioning.
There are some more changes to come, we are slowly making improvements and feeling really positive about the welcoming vibe we have created. We like watching how small changes influence how we respond and encourage people to connect with each other, and stop and enjoy our inside and outside garden spaces.

Baya Gawiy Garden to Plate Project
The children and educators at Baya Gawiy all play a part in the garden to plate project where they help to grow the plants and care and nurture them until they are ready to pick and eat.
The quality of the education and care being delivered to our Fitzroy Valley families is very impressive. We all feel so good when we come into the centre and see such healthy and engaged children all actively participating in learning, while also having a lot of fun.
Great Work Baya Gawiy Team

Creating Welcoming Spaces
The spaces we work in communicate a lot to the women and their children who come in to Marnin to access supports or just to sit and connect with others or check out the 1000 (many more than 1000 ) dresses :)
If we are able to create spaces that are calming, welcoming and therapeutically designed we are in a good place to have a positive impact on women and their families engaging with the different teams across the organisation .
