Join The Bush Bus team for a session of exploration and sensory play at Barrabool Park from 10:30AM to 12 PM. Your little ones will love the sensory tub full of dried chickpeas, barley, and lentils, where they can dive into a world of textures and teamwork. 🌾 It's a fantastic opportunity for children to develop crucial skills like fine motor functions, spatial awareness, and sharing, all while having fun in nature.

Join the Mambourin community for the Biggest Morning Tea at Little Growling Cafe from 9.30am until 11am on Saturday 25 May. Donate $8 or more to: https://ow.ly/tSSv50ROgzF to not only support the Cancer Council Victoria, but also receive a coffee and pastry and free face painting for the kids. We're aiming high for the Mambourin Biggest Morning Tea - $150 provides two people recently diagnosed with cancer with one-on-one support, connecting them to a trained Cancer Connect volunteer. $500 helps provide training to leaders of cancer support groups where people can meet and share their experiences in an emotionally supportive environment, and $1000 pays for an analysis of two gene samples for a research project. So donate, head down to Little Growling Café with proof of donation and help us support this great organisation.

We celebrated a milestone on Thursday, 2nd May, with the groundbreaking ceremony of Good News Lutheran College – Mambourin Campus. A warm thank you to Ms. Joanne Ryan, Federal Member for Lalor, and our vibrant community members who joined us for this special occasion. Our future Grade 3 students got their hands dirty too, planting the first shrubs, symbolising the growth and anticipation we all feel towards the opening in Term 1, 2025. 🌱📚 The day was filled with joy, from a delightful morning tea to playtime at Barrabool Park for the kids. We're excited about the progress and can't wait to welcome our students to their new campus!
