Local Susanna is running a new meditation course here at ACC on Thursday evenings 7.30-9pm. The cost is $180 for 6 weeks.

Many people these days struggle with their every day life, feeling stressed, tired or unmotivated. Life in general is more demanding and at times even overwhelming.

Establishing a meditation practice may help you find your centre and a feeling of peace again. 

In this course you will learn what meditation is, as well as its many benefits. Each week 1 to 2 different forms of meditation will be presented and practiced. There will also be the opportunity to talk about your experience and the challenges you may have regarding meditation, in a supportive environment.

To find out more and book in contact Susanna by email sklapakissparr@gmail.com or call 0407561586.

Our Term 3 program is out on our website - and bookings are open. You can book in here.

We have a spot left in our Women in the Shed program. And a series of repair workshops coming up … book in if you have a sewing machine or overlocker - and learn basic troubleshooting and how to keep them in tip top condition.

Separate booking processes (directly with the tutors) are in place for our new Artful Painting and Drawing with Clare, Meditation with Susanna and Japanese Playgroups with Miami. Also Yoyo’s violin lessons. See our brochure for the details.

And there’s lots more in there as well …

We’re looking forward to seeing you after the holidays.we reopen on Monday 10 July.

We’re super thrilled that Clare is going to run her Artful Painting and Drawing art class right here at ACC next term. We’re always getting enquires from people wanting to do art, so it is great to be able to offer this service. And especially so with someone as lovely as Clare.

The class will run on Monday afternoons from 1-3pm. The cost is $225 for 5 weeks ($45 per session) or $450 for 10 (the full term). Classes will start on Monday 10 July.

If you’d like to find out more about the content of the class you can visit Clare’s website swirlart.com.au. To book in give her a call on 0423 453 160.

Here are the photos as promised from our recent Yarra Neighbourhood House Network volunteer lunch.

Thanks to everyone who came along. We hope you had a great day!

This term at ACC we are delighted to have our friends from Alphington CWA helping us out with the catering for our morning teas /sort of early light lunches that are on at 11.30am each Friday during school term, outside under the pergola in the front garden.

Our gardeners, shedders and crafters come together each week after an active/creative morning, to share a cuppa and a some delicious food and a chat.

The first week of our new arrangement went swimmingly, everyone LOVED the food that was provided … AND we’re all quite excited to see what turns up next week … thanks Alphington CWA (Silvana and Miranda in particular this week).

If you are a local who enjoys gardening or crafting or making or chatting … please join us on a Friday morning from 10am for our community morning. You can come along regularly, or pop in more randomly. There’s a great bunch of lovely welcoming people here, and a super-friendly outdoor program you can join in led by Clare.

And if you are interested in joining the Alphington CWA they meet just around the corner at the Darebin Parklands Rangers Offices, in the Gleeson Room on the first Monday of the month at 7.30pm.
