Welcome to the 100 FSS’s March issue of the Get Up and Go and we’re ‘egging’ on the return of Spring with the Eggstravaganza on 16 March 2024!

The Eggstravaganza is our annual family favorite featuring face painting, a petting zoo, food trucks and free Easter egg hunts for your little ones! No egg-splaination needed as to why you’d want to attend!

March means St Patrick’s Day and we’re celebrating with some special Irish-themed brews at the Daily Grind and some traditional Irish cuisine at the Sports Bar.

If you’d like to get out in the warmer weather Outdoor Rec has got some great events coming up including bush crafting, hiking and mountain biking. As ever with Outdoor Rec, book early because places go quickly.

See inside the Get Up and Go for full details of these events and the rest of 100 FSS’s busy program this month.

Keep it sunny side up this March with 100 FSS!
