🔥 Father’s Day BBQ & Sharing Night 🔥

Join us for a heartwarming Father's Day BBQ celebration filled with good food, laughter, and honest conversations. This casual evening is a time to relax, connect with fellow dads, and reflect on fatherhood, challenges, and growth.

🎤 Special Guest:

We're honoured to have Dr Jeremy from Brightside Dental, who will share his personal journey of being diagnosed with ADHD as an adult — a candid and inspiring story of self-discovery, hope and resilience.

👨‍👦 Also joining us:

Our very own Exco dads Vincent, Ash and Rajeef will open up about their personal journeys with ADHD. From parenting a child with ADHD to supporting neurodiverse family members, they'll share how they stay connected, present, and continue growing through the chaos and joy.

🧠 Plus:

Swee Huat and his son, Kai Ming, will share their journey as a father-son pair navigating ADHD together — a rare chance to hear both perspectives, side by side.

🍗 Expect sizzling BBQ, open-hearted conversations, and a safe, supportive space to simply be.

SPARK SEMINAR 2024 : Making Learning Fun

Attention Parents and Educators!

We're excited to invite you to our SPARK Seminar on 9th November, from 3-5 PM, at Puzzletopia, Henderson CC. This is part of our annual SPARK SEMINAR SERIES fundraiser and our focus this year is on "Making Learning Fun"—a theme that is truly close to our hearts.

For many children with ADHD, learning can feel like a challenge. But when we make it enjoyable and engaging, everything changes. By tapping into their natural curiosity and innate desire to master new things, we can help our kids build a positive connection with not only the teacher but the content as well—leading to improved focus and better learning outcomes.

During this seminar, you'll hear from experts who have dedicated their lives to making learning fun as well as from fellow parents who have spared no effort in doing the same. Together, we'll explore both proven strategies and the real challenges of creating joyful learning experiences that enhance learning. This will be a supportive and informative session, and we hope you'll join us.
