The Beachside Family Centre has announced its 3Cs Craft Group program for term 1.

The group will be held each Monday from February 11 to March 31.

The chocolate making group will be held on February 11, birthday cards on February 18, screen printing with Melissa and Tanya on February 25, crystals with Carmen Daniels-Perrin on March 3, bead kids with Nicole on March 17.

A term two planning afternoon will be held on March 31.

Participants in the screen-printing group have been asked to bring a t-shirt or something to print.

The bead kits will be for sale from $5.

Participants for the planning afternoon have been asked to bring a plate of food to share.

A project is yet to be decided for March 10.

"The 3Cs (coffee, craft and chat) group is a great way to get out of the house and meet other people in your community," said Beachside Family Centre facilitator Ms Debbie Notara .

"If you have children 0 to 8 years of age, come along and have some fun.

"Sessions usually cost $3 a week but sometimes they cost a little more depending on what we are doing.

"Child care is available for $3 per child or $5 a family and bookings need to be made by the morning of each session as spaces are limited."

Anyone using the service is asked to provide a small healthy afternoon tea and sun hat for their children.

Call 4343 1929 with inquiries and for bookings.
