Programs at Clear Sky Australia
EMPLOYMENT & WORK EXPERIENCE
Clear Paws
Clear Sky Australia is passionate about creating opportunities for its participants to build independence and capacity to live with as much autonomy as possible. Noticing that employment training opportunities for people with a disability are extremely limited in Newcastle we made the decision to open Clear Paws which provides the perfect supported environment to develop employability skills.
Clear Paws is a launch pad for its participants to make the transition to employment! Our team will provide a thorough assessment, written reference and certificate for the time you spend with us to help you with your goal of finding your perfect job!

Land Care Volunteer
Clear Sky Australia's Land Care Volunteer program offers a unique opportunity for individuals to connect with nature while making a meaningful impact on the environment. Participants engage in hands-on conservation work, such as tree planting, weed removal, and habitat restoration, under the guidance of experienced environmentalists. This program not only fosters a sense of stewardship for the land but also provides a rewarding and fulfilling experience for volunteers of all ages and backgrounds.
Blackbutt Reserve
Blackbutt Reserve occupies over 182 hectares of natural bushland providing visitors with the opportunity to enjoy nature trails, wildlife exhibits, children's playgrounds, or passive recreation.
