WHAT'S HAPPENING?Despite several staff members enjoying some well-earned leave throughout July, it has been business as usual at the CRC.
The school holiday activity Wild at Art was held across two fun-filled sessions, where children created masterpieces inspired by Western Australia's endangered species. Good luck to all entrants in the Australian Conservation Foundation’s competition! With Microsoft Publisher no longer included in Microsoft 365 and support ending in October, the CRC hosted a workshop to help people transition to alternative programs. Please get in touch if you or your community group need assistance. With the upcoming Census taking place on August 11, information about accessing forms is available on page 23. The CRC has also commenced work on the 2027-28 Community Directory - see page 12 to update or include your details. Visiting services will also be available in August, with Get Spectacles on August 6 and ‘Meet the NDIA’ on August 13 from 10am-1pm. To send Jodi off on her Masters Hockey World Cup adventure, a spirited Green and Gold Day was held at the SEA exercise session. Exercise sessions are currently on hold until Jodi returns. We look forward to welcoming her back and hearing all about it!
