Circus tops holiday program

By PETER DOUGLAS

SCHOOL holidays are always a challenging time for parents, but Burrinja Cultural Centre is trying to lend a hand.
Over the next fortnight, the centre is packed with full of entertainment ideas for school-aged children, with the Burrinja Circus Festival leading the program.
The whole family can enjoy circus fun until Sunday 5 July.
Guests have the chance to learn aerials, stilts, tightrope and tumbles with the Ruccis circus team in their fabulous workshops for every age.
Included in the team will be the popular Ruccis circus show, pictured, as well as a show for the kids.
The show features students of the Ruccis Circus, who will be presenting a whole-school production, where students of all ages showcase their wide and varied array of talent.
Cranky Bear is a new show from the Patch Theatre Company, adapted from the best-selling book ‘The Very Cranky Bear’.
As always, there will be a fantastic array of musical acts and exhibitions, from artworks to photography.
