Last week at our weekly Wednesday morning tea activities our defence students and their friends made crazy pom pom creatures.....lots of fun with lots of glue and googly eyes!!  This club is run weekly at morning tea on Wednesdays in the spare 3A classroom.  All defence students are welcome and they are able to bring a friend to share the fun, so don't forget to remind them on the way out the door on Wednesdays. 

We’re changing our name!

On 1 July we will change our name from Defence Community Organisation (DCO) to Defence Member and Family Support (DMFS).

Our new name reflects our vision, what we do and who we do it for. While we are changing our name, there will be no changes to any of the services or programs offered to ADF members and their families.
