Woody’s Bush Cabaret – Free Concert

Word’s out on the “Aussie Bush Telegraph” —Woody and his kooky pals are staging a cabaret experience like no other! Get ready to sing, dance, and laugh your heart out in a laugh-out-loud adventure that’s as wild as a Year 3 campfire singalong. Think Dr. Seuss at Woodstock—or a school assembly if the principal had a ukulele and the only rule was to have fun! Meet Froggie Snow, Ralph the Tiger Snake, and maybe even a flying emu or two, as you discover that everyone—no matter their age—can jam on a uke. Packed with silly songs, puppetry, and comedic chaos, Woody’s Bush Cabaret brings families together in a high-energy celebration of music and imagination. FREE! Please pre register.

Southridge Country Fair

Every year since Southridge opened its doors in 1995, we’ve held our Country Fair on a Saturday in early May. On that day, we estimate that up to 5,000 people from our greater community attend our fair and enjoy a fun-filled family day at our school. For many, this is their first introduction to the Southridge community. This year’s 30th annual Country Fair will be held on Saturday, May 10th and features: a 500+ family garage sale (one of the largest in the lower mainland), food trucks, carnival rides & games, an outdoor artisan market, and much more.
