Nothing dramatic, no big explosions or car chases, just the world, folding into nothing. The human race survives but we can only take but one thing with them. A single memory.A library for the end of the world is an ongoing project that attempts to catalog the memories of every person on Earth using cassette tapes, building a database that the audience can physically explore, listening to the recollections and contributing their own. Come and share a cuppa, a cup cake and a conversation: muse over memories, talk tales and share stories with a complete stranger and see what unravels. A Library for the End of the World is coming to town, so come and taste a teaser of what's in store at our Conversation Set, no bookings necessary, just pull up a chair.

We ask each child “What is the best thing about being a „kid‟? This year we‟ll also ask “Why is it important for adults to help kids?” Responses are displayed around the Kindy room and children illustrate their response. We also host an Art and Photographic Auction – children have painted self portraits and selected their favourite digital print to exhibit during an art show. All families are invited to the night time event and proceeds are donated to a local charity.

We ask each child “What is the best thing about being a „kid‟? This year we‟ll also ask “Why is it important for adults to help kids?” Responses are displayed around the Kindy room and children illustrate their response. We also host an Art and Photographic Auction – children have painted self portraits and selected their favourite digital print to exhibit during an art show. All families are invited to the night time event and proceeds are donated to a local charity. We raffle framing vouchers donated from a local business and money raised is used to purchase new art resources for children.

From 19-25 October, thousands of people from across the country are heading out into their backyards, local parks, or favourite outdoor spaces to take part in the second annual AUSSIE BACKYARD BIRD COUNT! To get involved all you need is 20 minutes, your outdoor space of choice, and some keen eyesight (or binoculars). It doesn’t matter if you’re a novice or an expert—we’ll be there to help you out along the way. Simply record the birds you know and look up those you don’t on our new Aussie Bird Count app or our through our website (www.aussiebirdcount.org.au). You’ll instantly see live statistics and information on how many people are taking part near you and the number of birds and species counted across your neighbourhood and the whole of Australia! Not only will you get to know your feathered neighbours, but you’ll be contributing to a vital pool of information from across the nation that will help us see how Australian birds are faring. Last year we counted 800,000 birds, this year let’s make it one million. Get your friends and family together, head into the great outdoors and start counting!
