Seaside school holidays activation program

Seaside school holidays activation program sewing hearts
The July school holidays saw the Community Development team run a series of activation workshops at the Share Place in Seaside, Madora Bay.

 

The program rotated through four free, sustainability focused workshops suited to all ages including a glow party and messy play, hand sewing, crafty upcycling, and rug weaving.

The event was created to promote the Seaside Share Place for its local amenity as a community driven, bookable space.

The event was fully booked only days after releasing tickets, with approximately 300 people attended in total over the two weeks of the program.

The event was a success and created the opportunity for community connectivity and creativity.

During the event we secured three new bookings for the Share Place offering the community mums and bubs painting, mindfulness and mandala circles, and a Play2Talk community support group. These programs will begin in the new term.

The program was a wonderful initiative not just to bring together residents of Seaside estate, but also to attract attendees from a wider catchment are.

The top suburbs of residence of attendees over the two weeks were:

  1. Madora Bay (25.4%)
  2. Lakelands (11.7%)
  3. Greenfields (8.9%)
  4. Halls Head (8.0%)
  5. Other (6.6%)
  6. Mandurah (4.7%)
  7. Meadow Springs (4.2%)
  8. Karnup (4.2%)
  9. Singleton (3.8%)
  10. Secret Harbour (3.3%)

 

The events garnered a large amount of positive feedback from attendees and residents, with some highlights shown below.

What a wonderful space you have created for people to enjoy – I thoroughly enjoyed the workshop

I’m new to the area, new to WA entirely, and I’ve met some really lovely ladies at the two events I attended… I’d love to attend more if they are on offer

Our family thoroughly enjoyed both activities and sincerely appreciate all the effort and talents that go into them
