What's happening

The first Women in the Driver’s Seat program for Wallara Waters has come to an end. Thanks to https://www.facebook.com/learnatprace for all their fantastic work in adult education. Not only are the participants on their way to obtaining their driver’s license, but they got some hints and tips on basic car maintenance. We are hoping to have PRACE back again next year. If this program is something you’d be interested in, reach out to PRACE and have a chat

At Wallara Waters we love Halloween and seeing how the community gets involved. To help families identify where you can trick or treat, we invite residents to drop in to Wallara Waters Sales Centre any time from 11.30am until 5pm Tuesday 29th October to collect your free ‘Trick or Treaters welcome here’ lawn sign. They come with a bamboo stake ready to insert in your front yard, or can be attached to your front door. For those trick or treating with your kids, rest assured that if you see a sign up, the house will welcome you. Once Halloween is over, we encourage you to store your lawn sign and reuse again next year.

Dinner is all sorted for Friday night when Bahn Mi Runner food van arrives in Wallara Waters for Food Truck Friday.

They’ll be ready for pick-up from 5pm and serving til 8pm from the Wallara Waters Sales Office carpark – corner Wallara Waters Boulevard and Wallan Whittlesea Road.

Wallara Waters is a proud sponsor of Mitchell Rangers Soccer Club😊 This year, the Club has reached several major milestones. For the first time, the Club has fielded 4 Senior sides consisting of Senior Men’s and Reserves, Senior Women’s and a Men’s 3rds team. In addition, there are now 15 Junior sides - many of those with maximum playing numbers with a constant stream of new members joining even well into the playing season. As a sponsor, we love knowing that this fantastic Club is going from strength to strength, and we encourage anyone interested in playing to get in contact with the Committee. Pictured is the Under 8s team who recently had their first win of the season – well done team!
