Forum
The communities of St Margaret’s Uniting and Holy Cross Anglican, in partnership with Dickson College are hosting a Candidates’ Forum on Active Travel from 4 pm to 5:30 pm on Saturday, September 21 as part of the 2024 North Canberra Sustainability Festival.
College students will pose questions to candidates standing in the electorate of Kurrajong, exploring ideas and views on local transport policy.
The students, first-time voters, will draw on their insights and experience of public transport and travel infrastructure and expect to learn from what political parties and their respective candidates have to say.
For anyone wishing to view the funeral of Althea O’Rourke today at 1.30pm via Zoom, please click on the link below:
St Margaret’s is celebrating their 60th Anniversary on Sunday at 10.30 am and we have decided to join their service!

In the lead up to Easter, many of us may be thinking about buying and eating chocolate. Sadly, hazardous child labour in chocolate production is widespread and growing. But there are many things we can be doing about it, including (but not limited to!) buying ethically produced chocolate.
See here for information about a new ethical chocolate shopping guide or read more about the challenges of chocolate production and some ways you can support slavery-free chocolate here.
