Christmas on the Green
Join us for Christmas on the Green! It’s a fun family friendly event and combined with our December Market also gives you the chance to purchase Christmas gifts from our wonderful variety of market stalls. Santa is visiting, we have kids activities, a bouncy castle and singing by the Samoan Methodist Church Choir.
With food and drinks available, take some time to relax and picnic on the Village Green.
Please bring cash as most stalls don’t have eftpos.
Programme:
11.30am - An appearance from Santa for his annual lolly scramble
11.45am - Kids Races
12.30 - Singing by the Samoan Methodist Church
Plus a bouncy castle for all day fun and children can craft their own Christmas tree decorations.
Market will still be held if it rains. See you there!
Poll: Do you think banning gang patches is reasonable?
With the government cracking down on gangs, it is now illegal for gang members to display their insignia in public places whether through clothing or their property.
This means arrests can be made if these patches are worn in places like restaurants, shops, on public transport or ferries, and on airplanes. Arrests were made recently at a funeral.
