Making music from reuse resources. Year 9 @fortst Making music from reuse resources. Year 9 @fortstreet_hs students were set the challenge of making a decoration, toy or musical instrument using reuse resorurces from RG. We were so impressed with creativity! This was part of an all day session where the students had been learning about poverty in slums, and making do with what you can find. Our workshops can be incorpoated into all areas of the curriculum. How can we fit into your lesson plans this year?

ALL SOLD If you have ever wanted to walk on water ALL SOLD If you have ever wanted to walk on water, now is your chance! We have four walk on water inflatable balls with access zipper and holes for safety rope, which stops the ball from floating away. Balls are two metres in diameter and made from PVC. These inflatable balls are widely used for backyard games, swimming pools and water sport events, great fun for the whole family! Additionally to this, these inflatable balls would be great ideal for an event, fill them with a mixture of wild and wonderful materials. There is one pump available, 800W electric blower which makes inflating a breeze. Easily done in 10-15 mins. Four Inflatable balls are $120 each. Pump is $30 (first in best dressed). One custom designed green faux fur cover (which has an inbuilt zipper to encase the inflatable ball) $60. #walkonwater #inflatableball #inflatableball #watersport #waterevent #events #eventstyling #eventstylist #eventspace #creativereusecentre #savedfromlandfill #mardigras2022 #mardigras #reversethegarbage #reversegarbagemarrickville

Got a mending job or two but don't know where to s Got a mending job or two but don't know where to start? Join our next Monday morning mending group on 30 January. I popped into the November session to mend our RG flag, and it felt like a big warm hug with a group of people – most meeting for the first time – coming together to mend their own projects with guidance from Celia and each other. Jane and Maya tackled their holey jumpers, Heather and Georgia worked on closing up split seams and unpicking ruffles. Nicole, Anna, and Franses happily put aside their original projects to apply their creative skills to making clothes for Carolina’s daughter’s Sylvanian Family characters. There's no bookings, and no fee (although donations will be gratefully accepted). Just drop into our education space between 10 and 12 on Monday, 30 January. Bring your cup and we will supply tea and instant coffee, and Celia, our favourite mending guru. See you there! #mendingmeetup #rgworkshop #community #marrickville #innerwestcommunity

Yes, we know it’s ALL treasure, but you will be looking for specific treasure. 🔵 Make your mark on our community paper collage. 🔴 Snap a selfie with our world!
