The Mini Woolies in Dianella is set to transform the learning journey ofyoung people with disabilities. Woolworths and Dianella Secondary College Education Support Centrehave teamed up to create an immersive simulated supermarket space to practise retail and general life skills.

Rather than a fully operational store, a converted classroom has been set up to simulate the operations of an actual Woolworths supermarket, with baskets for fresh food, shelving for groceries, ticketing,signage and Woolworths branded uniforms, as well as two registers. The site will serve as an accessible learning space for students with disabilities to learn vital
skills in literacy, numeracy, communication and register operations; and building confidence, independence and preparedness for the future.
