School holiday camp

During the recent school holidays, the Diabetes WA and Perth Children’s Hospital again ran a school holiday camp for kids living with type 1 diabetes.

School Holiday Camp fun 

In the September 2024 school holiday camp run by Perth Children's Hospital (PCH) staff  with CaHoots &  funded by Diabetes WA  - the Dietitian and Social Work Department  ran a joint therapy group focusing on “things that bug me” and created a “Food Collage” .  

The group explored our children’s feelings about living with T1D and then explored how they all feel about food, creating positive  food language plus  acknowledging  living with T1D is  different to their peers and other family members but they are not alone. The activity was welcomed and enjoyed by the children .
