Our Vision
…to provide friendship and fun through craft, fitness and learning in a caring community environment..
Our classes are held both morning and afternoons on Wednesday and Thursdays during school terms. We have many classes on offer this year, so come and learn something new or hone a skill you already have. It doesn’t matter how old or young you are, or even if you are just learning… everyone is welcome!
“Come & Try” — First Class Free!
