Get into Spring with the annual Spring Outdoors Program.

Get into warmer weather and explore our local parks, reserves and gardens with the annual Spring Outdoors Program. Residents of all ages can connect with our environment and nature through play, workshops and educational seminars.

Run across the three municipalities of Manningham, Nillumbik Shire and Banyule City Councils, it presents more than 50 events. The program kicks off from September and goes through to the end of November.

We’re once again delighted to partner with our neighbouring Councils to bring you a program jam packed with environmentally themed events, such as walks, hands-on activities, information sessions, gardening tips for the whole family, and the ever-popular star gazing night at Westerfolds Park.

Manningham Mayor, Cr Paula Piccinini, said the program celebrates the coming of spring and protecting our environment.  It is a much anticipated annual event on the Manningham calendar.

“The Spring Outdoors program provides something for everyone, whether you’re looking for nature play activities for the kids or want to explore the region’s spectacular nature landscapes,” Cr Piccinini said.

Most events are free to attend, but bookings are essential in many cases so book early to avoid disappointment.

The spring outdoors program listing is available from Manningham Civic Centre, local libraries and community centres, or can be downloaded at manningham.vic.gov.au/spring-outdoors
