Mini Woolies simulated supermarket experience!
A Woolworths Group initiative supported by our technology partner Fujitsu Oceania, the Mini Woolies program involves the development of learning spaces that simulate a Woolworths supermarket on the grounds of specialist schools, TAFEs and disability service providers for young people with disabilities in Australia and New Zealand.
Benefits
Hands-on skill development
The program empowers young people with disabilities to develop essential real-world skills, including numeracy, literacy and customer service, through interactive activities.
Social and communication skills
This friendly and secure environment is an ideal place to develop social and communication skills, including learning how to interact with customers and collaborate effectively within a team.
Building confidence and independence
By practising real-world skills in a supportive setting, participants build confidence and independence, preparing them for future engagement and employment within the wider community.
Empowering Potential through Work Experience
Mini Woolies is committed to fostering a smoother transition from education to employment for young people with disabilities through our Work Experience Program.
Our stores serve as dynamic learning environments. Participants gain job readiness and increased independence by applying current skills, pinpointing areas for development, and engaging in supervised, practical tasks and observation.
