ACTIVITIES

Our program focuses on nurturing creativity, having fun and staying well. The activities offered each term are varied and are a mix of permanent "favourites" with fresh and innovative classes being added constantly.

We keep our prices to a minimum whilst setting a high standard for our classes. Our tutors identify strongly with the aims of the Community Centre and ensure classes are productive, satisfying and friendly. As well as new skills, class participants often gain a whole new set of friendships!

We appreciate in a busy world people are often stretched for time, so many of our classes allow casual attendance as time permits. Workshops often give a good insight into a new skill, and if the demand is there we are happy to make the class an ongoing one.

The Centre is able to respond quickly to community requests for a particular activity or current interest and we always welcome new tutors with fresh ideas and skills.

Find out more about our fantastic programs by clicking on the headings below.
We hope to see you at the Centre soon!
