Manly Christmas Choral Concert – goes to the beach!

29 Oct 2015

There’s some exciting news about Christmas in Manly!

This year, our wonderful annual Manly Christmas Choral Concert will be held on Manly Beach, close to North Steyne Surf Life Saving Club.

So, be sure to gather your family, friends and neighbours for an uplifting Christmas musical celebration with a massed community choir and orchestra at the 2015 Manly Christmas Choral Concert on Friday 11 December. 

As always, the Manly Christmas Choral Concert will be free to the public.

Manly Council is bringing together hundreds of singers for this year’s Christmas Choral Concert by the sea! 

The Concert will feature much-loved carols such as ‘Hark! The Herald-Angels Sing’, ‘Away in a Manger’, ‘Jingle Bells’, ‘Silent Night’, ‘White Christmas’, ‘All I Want For Christmas’, ‘Santa Claus is Coming To Town’ and much, much more – all followed by a spectacular fireworks finale!

And we are expecting Santa Claus to make a special appearance, of course!

Do you love to sing?

We are inviting singers to join our Manly Christmas Choral Concert Community Choir.  See the Manly Council website page for details. 

 

A driving lesson to cut stress – for teens and parents alike

This November, Manly Council is offering parents hints and tips to make teaching their children to drive a more pleasant experience!

Manly Council is running a free session for parents on Tuesday 10 November 2015 from 6-8pm at Manly Library where they will receive guidance and resources to help shape and structure their children's driving lessons and hopefully make them stress free.

Hundreds of parents along the Northern Beaches will have spent time over the weekend teaching their teenagers to drive. Some lessons undoubtedly will have involved stress and dramas, maybe tears and tantrums!

Places are limited and booking is essential.  To book your place, email Manly’s Road Safety Officer on records@manly.nsw.gov.au or call 9976 1619.
