Effie and Flora decided to start a colouring-in club one day while waiting for Flora’s brother, who attends ezee tennis and basketball clinics at the West Sunshine Community Centre, run by Brimbank City Council.
In this new program suitable for both parents and children of all ages, Effie and Flora lead the group in an afternoon of colouring and drawing. Taking on feedback from participants, they are planning origami, card making and a colouring-in competition for later in the term. You can BYO supplies or use the centres.
Brimbank Mayor Cr Bruce Lancashire says:
“Colour with Effie and Flora is a fun afternoon session at West Sunshine Community Centre and a great example of the kind of after school activities that can be found at any of our Neighbourhood Houses and Community Centres. It is great to see the community led activities at the centres. While the kids enjoy supervised creative play, parents and carers can meet other people from the local area. If you have an idea for a program or activity, I encourage you to get in contact with our centres.”
Colour-in with Effie and Flora is a fun, friendly and informal activity, where parents and kids enjoy lively conversations. Children have the opportunity to develop their creativity, social and fine motor skills. Parents or carer supervision is required for children under 12 years of age.
When: Mondays 17 July – 4 September, Thursdays 20 July – 7 September at 3.30pm-4.30pm.
