We change lives throughthe power of sport, building pathways for inclusion learning and social integration The Foundation post COVID lockdowns was finally able to complete North Ryde school Hub programs offered in collaboration with Putney Public Primary Schools completing a final semester of training in Term 3 late in 2021 with 30 children. We continued to work closely with the national Football Federation to identify ways to collaborate to deliver inclusion sport and formed a partnership with Collective Leisure to build a school holiday inclusion sports program which unfortunately had to be put on hold due to COVID fatigue. Our vision mission and purpose remain clear; to support children of all abilities access the benefits of sport for growth and development. However, as this year proceeded, we found the impact of COVID on our energies and focus prompted us to enter a reflective and planning period.

Next Step Foundation

The Next Step Foundation is an Australian nonprofit organisation dedicated to supporting children with additional needs. It was established on September 17, 2013, and focuses on providing inclusive learning environments that help bridge the gap between mainstream and special needs education.

Mission and Activities

The foundation implements an evidence-based program designed to assist children in exploring, developing, learning, and building relationships while having fun. This approach is backed by specialized coaches and health professionals, creating a supportive and nurturing environment for both children and their families. The program aims to foster feelings of security, acceptance, and understanding among families.

Next Step's activities are structured around school terms, with each program session lasting 45 minutes and running for eight consecutive weeks per term. The sessions are conducted across multiple locations depending on available funding. Small group sizes of 5-7 children ensure personalized attention based on individual needs.

Beneficiaries

The foundation primarily supports children aged between six and under fifteen, as well as those in early childhood aged under six. It also provides services for people with disabilities.

Program Classification

Next Step Foundation is classified under disability sports, reflecting its use of sport as a medium to promote development and inclusion.

Strategic Partnerships

The organisation seeks collaborations with other entities that share its vision, aiming to form long-term partnerships that can help expand its reach and impact through community activities.

Fundraising and Community Engagement

The foundation encourages community involvement through fundraising events and sponsored activities, with the goal of providing more free classes for children and their families. Donations are crucial in helping the foundation achieve its objectives, but it emphasizes ethical fundraising practices, avoiding unsolicited calls or requests for banking details.
