🌿 Spring has arrived and it's the perfect weather for a walk, coffee or just soaking up the sunshine! Our friends at Central Coast Sports College have a couple of events coming up, which means there'll be a bit more buzz (and a few more cars) around the place than usual.

🏉 Sunday 14 September (8am – lunchtime) - Central Coast Roosters selection trials on the fields near the café

⚽️ Thursday 18 September (8.30am – 3.30pm) - Primary Football Gala Day on the school’s main pitch and oval

It's great to see the parklands alive with energy, but please allow a little extra time and patience on these days!
