Family fun day Sunday
FAMILIES are invited to a fun day at the Pecten Avenue Park this weekend.
Following the success of a recently well-attended ‘Father’s Day in the Park’ event, the West Warrnambool Neighbourhood House will host another family fun day this Sunday from 1pm-3pm.
The event will also serve as a listening post for people to find out more and have their say on the proposed West Warrnambool Neighbourhood House for the park.
“Everyone is welcome to come along to join the fun and learn more about the suite of services and programs the West Warrnambool Neighbourhood House can offer families and individuals living west of the city,”
West Warrnambool Neighbourhood House coordinator Jill Bourke said.
“This house was established in 2019 and has operated as a mobile pop-up community resource, offering community members opportunities to socialise, improve their health and wellbeing, learn new skills and belong.
“Neighbourhood houses help to combat social isolation and loneliness by being accessible, non-threatening and inclusive spaces that welcome people of all walks of life regardless of age, gender, ability or economic status.”
Activities on the day will include live entertainment by Gabby Steel, face painting, a sausage sizzle, coffee, ice cream and kite flying.
