Horsham Lutheran School choir showcased their beautiful voices, delighting the crowd with their carols.

 

Rupanyup’s Bev Langley read a Christmas themed poem.

 

Christmas themed games and quizzes were a highlight of the lunch.

 

Some 60 Memory Lane Cafe service users from across the Horsham, Hindmarsh and Yarriambiack Shire areas gathered at Horsham Cycling Club on Wednesday, July 18 to celebrate Christmas in July.

Rupanyup’s Bev Langley read a poem for the gathering, before the Horsham Lutheran School choir entertained with some beautifully sung carols.

Enjoying the chance to catch up with friends, the service users played some Christmas themed games and quizzes before being treated to a delicious lunch.

If you would like to know more about Memory Lane Cafes please call the Centre for Participation on 03 5382 5607.

After months of hard work we were proud to launch the first edition of our new Centre for Participation magazine, Participate last week.

Designed to share with readers what is happening within the organisation from our services to our goals, highlighting the wonderful work our volunteers do and showing how you can help, we hope you enjoy reading it as much as we enjoyed putting it all together.
