Western Homeschoolers Community is warmly inviting all to its Christmas Craft market at the Iramoo Community Centre on 4 December.
The parent-led community is running the event in conjunction with the centre to raise funds for the group and to foster social connections.
Jay Aggarwal, one of the parents leading the charge, said he hopes to see some friendly faces out and about.
“We are hoping to reach out to the community to come and check it out– it is just going to be a fun event for all ages to come and participate,” Mr Aggarual said.
The market will include a variety of handcrafted items and baked items that will be available for purchase.
Among them will be a seedling store, 3D-printed items such as key rings, Christmas decorations and Christmas cards.
Like any good Christmas event down under, there will be a sausage sizzle.
“It is just all of those things relative to Christmas time and the festive season– people can grab some interesting things and have a nice treat,” Mr Aggarual said.
Along with spreading cheer and helping them raise funds, the day is also about encouraging other locals to join the group.
The group was founded in the middle of the year and meets weekly on Thursday mornings.
Their mandate is to build friendships, share experiences and create a welcoming community for all.
Those who make down to the day out are encouraged to bring cash to pay for the smaller items as there will not be an Eftpos machine.
