North Canberra Our inaugural North Canberra nativity festival (a joint project of St Mar- garet’s Uniting, Holy Cross Anglican and Holy Rosary Catholic church- es) was held from 11 - 15 December and attracted 1000 visitors, includ- ing school children, aged persons and the general public to see around 170 nativities and other associated items on display. Huge thanks must go to Keith and Anna Linard of Holy Rosary for contributing most of the nativities and setting up the entire display. It almost certainly will become a regular event with an additional 70 nativities already having been offered for next year. (Images on these two pages by Brian Rope) St Margaret’s News 6 December 2019
