(with events through to Jun 2011)

Perhaps you could get a group together and book into one of the sessions in the new year.

Just on Saturday I took my daughters to one of their kids courses. My 8yr old is very confident but she learned a few new things like looking over the shoulder for cars (instead of relying on me to watch for her!) My 6yr old was not confident stopping and has been too scared to try riding much around home on the hills. But on Saturday being on the flat and in a school situation, the peer group pressure helped push her to overcome her fear and she learnt to brake better. Now she is more confident again and loving it. (And wants the new cruiser bike she saw in the shop on Sunday! :-( )

Force of Nature – Monday 21st of March @ The Arts Centre Gold Coast @ 6.30pm

Life Changing Documentaries:

Queensland Premiere of Force of Nature

We are proud to present this special event, the Queensland Premiere of the award winning documentary Force of Nature. We have once again teamed up with The Arts Centre Gold Coast, and are excited to announce that we have a new larger room for this year’s series of documentaries.
David Suzuki, iconic Canadian scientist, educator, broadcaster and activist delivers a ‘last lecture’ — what he describes as “a distillation of my life and thoughts, my legacy, what I want to say before I die”.

The film interweaves the lecture with scenes from the places and events in Suzuki’s life — creating a biography of ideas — forged by the major social, scientific and cultural events of the past 70 years.

Fabulous Organic Food and Wine will be available from 5.45pm. After the 6.30pm screening our panel of experts will discuss the issues raised by the film, and field questions from the audience.
