January at GBCC...

14/1/2025

From the Coordinator...

Its time - to SLOWLY ease back into all things GBCC after a lovely rest with my family and LOTS of adventures we are getting ready to kick off 2025.

2024 was another amazing year, we ventured to new places, made lots of new friends along the way and hosted some pretty amazing events in the closing weeks - so awesome that myself and the team collapsed in a heap as we shut the doors on the centre just before Christmas - so our photo gallery in this newsletter will be loaded with all the adventures of December !

I am excited for the new families we will welcome as well as finding out what our returning families have been up to since I last saw you all.

Term 1 is always a blur, with back to school, public holidays, welcoming new families, welcome events (keep your eye out for our save the date) and all of a sudden we are looking at school holiday programs, lots of new venues have popped up around Brisbane so being a financial member has never been more important.

I am super excited to get the year started and cant wait to see everyone.

From the Committee...

New year, new Posting Location??
This time of the year is very exciting for the team at GBCC! Not only do we get to try out new ideas, we also get to welcome a whole new bunch of Defence families posting in to our wonderful location. We make it our mission to ensure that as many families as possible know about our centre, the sessions that we run, the services we offer and the opportunity we provide to make connections in your community.
You might be thinking:

"I've been to other community centres and it wasn't my vibe"
"Showing up at a new place is a bit daunting"
"I don't have children, there won't be anything for me there"
"It couldn't possible be as good as my last Defence Community Centre...."

These are all completely valid, but we promise it will be worth the effort of giving us a go! Defence life is hard and a great support network can make all the difference, and that is exactly what we are offering. A friendly, welcoming environment, activities to keep yourself busy, a wealth of knowledge and information, and other people who "just get it".
A great way to find out all about our community centre and what is on offer to you.... is to come to our Open Day! (See the event information below)
