23.01.2022 We have our Christmas drinks organised...Have a safe and happy Christmas!

22.01.2022 Thankyou Patrice Gorman for these pics of the water carts which are at her work in North Altona in an outside sitting area and they are well looked after she sa...ys. Patrice's mum comes from Shepp and her dad was involved in supervising fruit pickers with his work at Footscray markets. Patrice's memories of holidays in Shepp are learning to swim at the pool, many happy hours of playing at International Village and climbing the steps of the tower many times but still doesn't know how many steps. Patrice loves seeing the water carts at work. Thanks Patrice. See more
