Manningham Hello and welcome to September 2015. Is it just me or did anyone else feel like this winter was one of the worst flu and virus seasons. It seemed like no one was immune, we had weeks of suffering in our household. I am so glad that Spring is finally here. September does not only mean its football finals time but more importantly we celebrate Father's day which this year falls on Sunday the 6th September. Why not spoil dad and take him out locally for Breakfast , lunch or dinner. Here are some suggestions Templestowe Hotel, Cherry Hill Hotel, DEGANI Templestowe, Cafe 21 Macedon and Warrandyte Cafe. All these venues are family friendly so you can relax and enjoy this special day with your dads. Make sure you book early to avoid disappointment. Happy Fathers Day to all the Fathers and Grandfathers. May your day be filled with happiness and love. Make sure you enter our two competitions this month. The winners will receive either a $30 voucher for a Sunday Brunch at Cafe 21 or one of two family passes to Lollipops Playland. All the details are below. School holidays are approaching, most of us are thinking of how we can make the school break fun for our children and ourselves. Make sure you view our What's On In Manningham on Page 31 . We have created a guide to what you can do during the school holidays with your children to keep them busy. The weather should be starting to warm up by now so it will be a great time to go to Manningham City Council free Movie Night and watch Labyrinth Saturday 19 September in the gardens @ Heide Museum of Modern Art at 6:45pm. There is also Free Family Games and Space and Arts Play at 3:00pm www.manningham.vic.gov.au/events. If you have not done so yet please don't forget to LIKE US on facebook which is also a great way to keep in touch with local events and businesses. If you ever miss out on a copy of Your Child in Manningham you can read it online at www.yourchildinmanningham.com.au.
