Looking for a chance to improve your fitness before summer? Join either our Family Fitness or Active Adult classes with Jess from Phase1 Performance in Term 4.

Join up here for four sessions at $60. Running on Tuesday mornings - 19 November until 10 December.

Perfect timing to get stronger so you can enjoy all the activities the outdoors have to offer over summer.

We are coming up to school holidays, which start at the end of this week - but we have a packed agenda before then. In addition to all the regular things we have:

• Preserves Group - Tuesday at 1pm. We’ll be cooking some tomato chutney and finishing off our lemons if you are keen to come along.

• Movie Club 🍿 - Tuesday 6pm we’ll be meeting at Westgarth Cinema to see Touch. It looks like a fabulous film and anyone can join our movie club!

• Meet The Candidates - Wednesday at 7pm to meet the local ward candidates for the Darebin Council election. Find out more here.

• Alphington Arts - Thursday 7.30pm. We have life drawing coming up. Clare has organised a model.

Last week we had a great time with our impromptu ‘Lemon Cleaner DIY’ workshop and a lovely visit from our neighbourhood house colleagues on Wednesday. We also had Jill Post, who is the Greens candidate for Yarra pop in for lunch on Friday. It is always great to share what we do.

For more information on all of these things check out the posts and photos below.

Term 4 starts on Monday 7 October - and we look forward to seeing you then.

I hope you have a lovely week.

On Wednesday, Julie who runs our North East Neighbourhood House Network organised for a busload of colleagues to visit all the Darebin Houses. We were the morning tea hosts.

It was great to be able show off the renovations and talk in person about all the things we do in our community. Thanks Julie for organising this.

We’re looking forward to life drawing at Alphington Arts on Thursday night from 7pm. You can join up here if you are interested and come along for a fun social night with an arty focus. Make local arty friends. Learn from others.

This program runs 4 times a semester (at the beginning and end of each term), and for our second session we will have a go at life drawing which is always challenging and interesting. Clare has organised the model.

BYO food and snacks. Also if life drawing is your thing you can bring your own supplies. Otherwise we will have some on hand here.

Looking forward to seeing everyone again!
