Month in Review: October
It's been another fantastic month here at GO, though we can't believe we're in the final months of 2026. Where did all the time go!?!
AGM
On Wednesday 28th October, GO held our 2026 AGM. It seems that every AGM gets bigger and better, and this year was no exception. Alongside another standout presentation from our Participant Voice Group (including a rousing musical performance!) and service awards to our many long-standing participants, employees and volunteers, GO's 2027-2030 Strategic Plan was announced after several months of planning and preparation. We've got a full run down of our new plan on our website. Click this link to read all about it!
Thank you to all our Association Members, participants, families, staff, volunteers and community members who attended the evening, and made it just a big a highlight of the year as ever!
Halloween Disco
Whether you're a fan of Halloween or not, there's no denying, it's a good chance to dress up and have some fun!! This year, our participants got together for a Halloween themed disco. We took over the art room and turned it into a dance hall! Lights, music, pizza and costumes, it was a great way to end the week, hang out with friends and ramp up into end of year festivities.
Op Shop Facelift
This month Burgess Signs helped give GO Again Op Shop a springtime facelift! We think the colourful GO triangles are a bright new addition to the shop. Stop by Shop 4/115 Anzac Avenue, Seymour and check them out for yourself!
BLP Awards
September's Biggest Life Possible Award winners were Andrea H, Garry D, Anita O and Sue M. Congratulations to this well-deserving bunch of staff and thank you for your excellent participant supports!
Excursions
It wouldn't be a month at GO without some exciting excursions taking place. This month, we had a group of our biggest animal-lovers head out to Bundoora Farm to spend the day getting up close an personal with a whole range of farm animals, including goats, cows, guinea pigs and more!
Then, we had another crew head out to The Meadows for another installment of The Great Chase. A day of fun and greyhounds, all in support of local disability services. What a day!
Seymour Show
The Seymour Show also took place in October, and as always, we had a range of GO Artists enter their work. Congratulations to those who received Highly Commended Awards at this year's Seymour Show: CapeTwin, Holly, Kimberly and Robbie. And well-done Robbie for also selling his art on the day!
Another big month, with much more to come before the end of the year. Make sure you're staying in touch with GO via our social media. You can find us on Facebook and Instagram @ goulburnoptions. See you next month!
