Dates to Remember

Tuesday 30 July – Re-scheduled Club Committee Meeting

and a scary thought – we are closer to next Christmas than to last Christmas.

.

BOOK FAIR

Preparations are well underway for our next Book Fair which will be on 4, 5 and 6 April 2025.  Donations are coming in steadily.

.

We are always keen to involve more members in this activity. If you are interested in getting involved on a regular basis pop into the veranda on a Monday afternoon (between 2 pm and 4 pm) to talk to Judy and see what we do.

CRAFT GROUP – Thursdays 10.00-12.00

      

.

I think the smiling faces tell it all.  Knitting, crochet, stitching, paper crafts and more…. creative fun and of course the odd cake turns up for morning tea.
