This week

All going according to plan (thank goodness I was disorganised and missed the cheap deals on Qatar earlier in the year … so had to book with Malaysian Airlines) when you are reading this I am in Lyon, France. And yikes, it is going to be hot!

  • Forecast Temperature Melbourne: 5-14 degrees

  • Forecast Temperature Lyon: 22-34 degrees

I am visiting my oldest daughter who has been studying at uni in Lyon for the last 6 months - so I am very excited to see her! And I hope and trust that everything is going smoothly at ACC.

Tahlia is in the office this week holding the fort. I am sure she will be able to answer all your questions, and if not, she can touch base with Kalimna to sort things out. And if that fails I can check emails overseas.

Community Lunch is still on - we’re having bolognese this week along with a green salad and garlic bread. All welcome at 12pm. And of course you can pop in to gardening beforehand to work up your appetite - from 10am with Clare.

This week we have the Thursday morning and evening book clubs on. We’re looking forward to seeing you! A reminder to all book club members that we will close for the school holidays at the end of this week - so it is important to pop in and collect your books (if you missed your scheduled meeting) before 2pm Friday, and please drop your books back at the library if they are overdue rather than leaving them here - once we close on Friday we cant return them until we are back on 21 July.

Our new program is out for Semester 2, so you can check it out below, and book in via our website. We’re excited by all the things coming up in the second half of they year and hope you are too!

Have a great week. See you soon.

Cheers Leanne

Alphington arts

This month for Alphington Arts we headed out of the ‘hood (shock horror) and all the way over the river to Armadale to see local artist Kate Herd’s print exhibition.

It was a great night out - we had dinner afterwards. And bought a couple of works.

This week

Hi all

We have our last Table to Plate for the term today (Monday). Join us from 11.30am to cook up something yummy!

Please note that unfortunately we have to cancel Preserves tomorrow. We will touch base with everyone today via the Whats App group.

Our garden is looking fabulous after the rain and the hard work of Jenny, Corrado and Dinesh on Friday … and we had a great time seeing our friends from GenU for art and craft on Friday morning as well. Check out the photos below.

Thanks also to Tahlia for holding the fort - she did a great job cooking dumplings and fried rice and a yummy chinese cabbage dish on Friday - yum. We look forward to seeing you on Friday for lunch this week if you can make it. Anyone is welcome to join us at 12pm.

We hope you have a great week.

See you soon.

Leanne
