Scanning the skies for #Santa at @overnewtoncastlereception today, Mayor Lucinda Congreve and Adelina checked out preparations for Carols at the Castle coming up Sunday week (16th December). Tickets are selling fast, so head to Eventbrite and search "Carols at the Castle" - with tickets starting at $5, you'd be hard-pressed to find a more family friendly pre-Christmas present. The Mayor outlined what's in store this year: "Each year Council is delighted to put on a magical Christmas performance – Carols at the Castle – which has become a traditional celebration for many local families. Carols at the Castle has always been popular – this year we’ve responded to audience requests for more sing-along numbers, so that everyone can join in, and a range of food offerings. We have an impressive line-up of performers, as well as some much-loved Christmas characters, including elves, fairies and – if we’re good – Mr and Mrs Claus! Carols at the Castle is also an important fundraiser – with all money from ticket and merchandise sales going to the Brimbank Community Fund, which supports Brimbank’s most vulnerable residents through grassroots solutions. Brimbank Council is proud to support this fund which, in the past four years, has distributed around $45,000 to 11 local charities assisting young people with their education, employment and wellbeing. Carols are a great way to get into the Festive spirit, and I’m really looking forward to celebrating with the community at this wonderful event". . . . #christmas #carols #community #santaclaus #singing #joy #wearebrimbank #giving
Next up for Carols at the Castle we bring you a Saxaphonist, a clarenettist and a vocalist: Justin Fermino! Starting his musical career at the fresh age of twelve, Justin definitely knows how to captivate an audience! He's toured Japan, China, United Kingdom, Europe and now we welcome him to Brimbank! At just 29 years old Justin's written more than 100 compositions and has multiple albums! As well as all of this, Justin has played alongside the likes of Leroy Jones, Bob Barnard and James Morrison! So don’t miss out on bringing the Christmas cheer with this world-wide sensation. Secure your tickets now!! https://bit.ly/2EEySUY #WeAreBrimbank #Carolsatthecastle #JustinFermino
We're bringing the Giving Tree to our neighbourhood again this Xmas. You can donate non-perishable goods to people who might be struggling.

Today is International Day of People with Disability. To celebrate #IDPWD the Duke Street Community House flashmobbed the foyer of Brimbank Community and Civic Centre to the delight and surprise of everyone. We were blown away by the whole team, especially Ibrahim Ibrahim's Auslan interpretation (and flossing :) ) to some feelgood tunes! We're asking residents to rethink how they view disability with a set of messages to be rolled out across train stations in the West ahead of International Day of People with Disability. In a joint project with Hobsons Bay Council, Maribyrnong Council and Metro Trains, we'll install messages on platforms at Sunshine, St Albans and Watergardens train stations. Brimbank Mayor Cr Lucinda Congreve said the messages were an important reminder that we all need to reflect on how we think about disability: “Whether it’s being more open to the many things a person with disability can achieve or the fact that many disabilities are invisible – these messages challenge some of the stereotypes facing people with disability". . . . @idpwd_org #wearebrimbank #flashmob #disability #flossing #flossingdance

A decade ago, Rebecca Barnard created the Caravan Singalong Society with a handful of warblers. When Billy Miller added his ‘human jukebox’ to Rebecca’s warmth, those warblers turned into a throng! With spontaneity the key ingredient, Rebecca and Billy used their legendary abilities and created a monthly singalong night that's been sold out for years. The Caravan Choir has been a regular highlight at the Sacred Heart Concert performing with household names like Colleen Hewitt, Tim Rogers and Red Symons. Join them at this year's Carols at the Castle!.

Our next Christmas Carols at the Castle sensation is Monique DiMattina! Monique's won multiple awards for her amazing songwriting and pianist skills. On top of that she's well-renowned for writing a song in just an hour! If you don’t recognise her from ABC radio and Triple R then you may have seen her at a Melbourne bus stop playing a ukulele! Come and bring the Chrissy cheer with Monique. Secure your tickets now at: https://bit.ly/2EEySUY
