THE NORTH Shore Community Centre (NSCC) held its annual Christmas Carnivale on Saturday, November 23 within the grounds of the Mudjimba bases centre. The free event is always highly anticipated each year and attendance this year was estimated at around 1,500 people.
Centre representative Tony Brown stated that events like this are so important for the community.
“We all work so hard to put this on but it’s just so good to see everyone come along and catch up… we were thrilled to see so many turn up which is what the community centre is all about.”
The team made sure that there were lots of free activities for the little family members.
“Santa drew a huge crowd down on the ground as he landed in the helicopter and we had presents for all of the kids,” Tony said.
The NSCC is a vibrant local hub that is open to all. They have a range of community services available from support services, health and fitness classes, room hire, social and adult learning as well as special events. They are non-judgemental and offer a welcoming space.
