Morning Kids!

The weather might be a little temperamental at the moment but at least we are getting closer to Spring/Summer with each passing day.

Here is the latest upcoming fun in Bermuda:

Feeling safe and secure in your home and neighbourhood is essential for all of us, but can present special challenges if you’ve lost or are losing vision. For this reason, the Bermuda Society For The Blind presents Keeping You and Your Home Safe: Tips From the Bermuda Police Service on Wednesday, January 20th.

From 6pm at Beacon House, the Bermuda Police Service’s Central Community Action Team (CCAT) will share ways to make your home and neighborhood as safe as possible.

This event is free and open to the public.

Morning Kids!

Well, the options for Christmas and NYE in Bermuda just keep on coming!  And it’s a good thing too, since Christmas Eve is a week tomorrow – better start making your plans now, if you haven’t already.  Remember to check the Quick Recap section at the bottom of the post for details of events that have been published in previous weeks.

Event organisers, there is only one more post left to be published in 2015, so submit all your events to me while there is still time – don’t forget to give people as much time as possible to plan to attend your events.

Bermuda National Gallery invite you to join them for the launch of Woolcock’s Wonders, celebrating The Art of Peter Woolcock, on Friday, December 18th.

Renowned Cartoonist Peter Woolcock made Bermuda chuckle for decades. Now for the first time, his unpublished children’s works have been collected in one edition. Be transported into a world of stunning and rib-tickling imagination in the company of Woolcock’s Wonders.

The book launch will take place from 11am until 1pm at Bermuda National Gallery on the 2nd floor of the City Hall & Arts Centre.
