A little about us: We are a family business that runs Amazement Farm and Fun Park, Central Coast Zoo and Kindifarm on the Central Coast of NSW. We aim to meet the needs of all our guests as best we can and give them a moment in time they will always remember.
We are now branching out one step further to assist people living with disabilities and special needs to reach their goals and learn new skills that will help them succeed in all aspects of their life. We work closely with each individual to make sure that we are getting a detailed insight into their specific needs, wants and goals. We match participants with workers in the field that will be compatible with their personality and interests and include them in our everyday program at the facility.
Our mission is to make sure participants succeed whilst in our program and reach their needs, wants and goals. Our personalised service is a niche learning experience where participants gain skills to shine and grow. We want all our participants to remember their experience with Amazement Pathways Program as a moment in time they will never forget.
