Fun with Flowers

Fun with Flowers

The partnership between Nirimba Outreach, Dean Park

Community Centre & Richmond Floristry

It started when a local community wanted Mt Druitt Outreach to offer a floristry

course.

The group was able to use a hall in Glendenning.

The students loved the work and enjoyed having their floral pieces

photographed.

The collaboration between the three partners started when

Nirimba Outreach wanted to offer a floristry course.

This is when Dean Park Community Centre was approached as a venue.

The first group at Dean Park Community Centre was in

semester 2 of 2011.

It was an enthusiastic group that thoroughly enjoyed all

aspects of the training.

How proud they were to make the table decorations

for their last day celebration!

The second group at Dean Park Community Centre was

in semester 1 of 2012.

How pleasing it is to tell you that we have at Richmond a new

Certificate II Floristry class from these groups at Dean Park

Community Centre.

And we will be starting the third Outreach group at Dean Park Community Centre in August

2012.

Thanks must go to Carol Smith from Nirimba, Karen Tyler from Dean Park Community Centre and Samantha Harper from

Richmond Floristry.
