25.01.2022 We had our final workshop last Sunday, in collaboration with Mount Morgan Gallery, and it was a fantastic morning,...so great to see so many faces. A big shout out to all who attended the workshops to help get props ready for the Twilight Ancestral Fair, your contribution was appreciated, and we hope you enjoyed the sessions. Below are some photos, taken by Claudia Brooks Photography....Thanks so much, you really captured how engaging our little (27 people!) soirees are.

24.01.2022 The fantastic annual Trick or Treat will be held on the night. Our amazing Morgan Street businesses have come on board and will have themed window displays to liven up the walk along our main street! Great community spirit shown, and so exciting for the kids! Starting at newsXpress Mount Morgan, the walk will head up to the hospital, then John Cani, and finally back to the school grounds, for an exciting night of displays, activities, and amusement rides.
