💐New club alert! HeART Warmers Club is a Winter art club and safe hang out place for teens in Burra starting in June! 💐

This program came about because of a request from a Burra Community School student. If you’re a young person with an idea you want to make happen, reach out to our community team. We love collaborating with young people to make good things happen.
