A short description about your blog

The next mens breakfast will be in the church hall on Saturday 6th March, starting at 7.00 am .

Our guest speaker will be Cheryl Brown the principal from St Anthony's primary school who will share with us the subject of Agile Learning Spaces, which is also referred to as open plan learning. This topic is one of great interest in the school community and we look forward to sharing this with all those who can attend.

It would be great to see some new faces and  if you are a regular please invite a friend.

The next men's breakfast will be on Saturday 3rd October in the parish hall, starting as usual at 7.00 am.

For this  breakfast gathering the committee  have organised a very special guest speaker,  it will be our NSW premier Nathan Rees, who has kindly agreed to share some of his stories with the men's group.

I have not had an opportunity to mention the success of the August breakfast. For those who were not able to attend you missed a very memorable morning, our previous speaker John Crawley held everyone spellbound as he recalled his fabulous football (soccer) career. John shared with us the high and lows of professiomal sports and as he spoke his enthusiasm rubbed off on his audience, he has a passion for his work and is very fortunate to able to mix business with pleasure.

Once again we thank John for his time and look forward to another opportunity to hear him speak.

The organisers of the men's breakfast group thank everyone for their continued support, and we hope that as many men as possible,  from the school and the parish,  can join with us on  Saturday the 3rd.


The next breakfast will be held at the parish hall on Saturday 1st August starting at 7.00 am.

Following the success of the inaugrual breakfast we have a guest speaker,  John Crawley is part of the national soccer team training staff, specialising in goal keeping.

We received mixed reviews about how often to hold the breakfast,  and it was decided that a breakfast will be held every month and people could decide for themselves how often they could attend. Make a note in your diary and please feel free to invite a friend from the parish or school to come along.

We again ask that a gold coin donati0n be made to cover the cost of your breakfast.

Hi All

A big thanks to all those hearty souls who braved the icy conditions at the first men's breakfast. From all accounts the mornng was immensly enjoyed and gave everyone an opportunity to put names to familiar faces. We received some important feedback on the morning and hope to use this information to build on this successful start.

The intention is to hold a breakfast on the first Saturday of each month and have a variety of guest speakers to share with us  small insights into their lives, we will keep everyone posted on the date for the next breakfast.

Thanks to the organisers and especially Grant Picman & Andrew McGloughlin who gave up their time to cook for the thirty five men in attendance.
