HAPPY NEW YEAR TO CONONDALE

Brilliant sunshine early today. A terrific start to the New Year.

This photo was taken along the M-K Rd in front of the school.

A half an hour later the early morning birdsong was interrupted by four squawking black cockatoos. Usually a sign that heavy rain will come for at least a couple more days, possibly more.

HAPPY CHRISTMAS and a huge THANK YOU

A huge thank you to all those warm-hearted Conondalians who contributed to the Christmas Food Collection. The Maleny Neighbourhood Centre (MNC) does a wonderful job assisting those who are financially struggling and the MNC always are in need of extra food items especially over the holiday season. 

                                                       Donated Goodies - Full to the brim

The Maleny Neighbourhood Centre`s services through the year are open to Conondalians - check out their website if you have never called in there.

Their XMAS BREAKFAST is on as usual and everyone is welcome

WISHING EVERYONE A VERY HAPPY HOLIDAY SEASON

 Anyone who would like to donate some food items before 21st December can drop them off at 1639 Maleny-Kenilworth Rd. If no one home please leave undercover in the porch area. Thanks.  

     The MNC Food Box will be given to the Centre on Thursday 21st December. Let`s fill it to the top!
