It’s the most wonderful time of the year, and what better way to celebrate than by designing your own Christmas ornaments to display on your tree.

Kids of all ages headed to Maude St to decorate their native Christmas decorations made of wood chips, gum nuts and mini pine cones.

The sessions took place from December 20 to 22, with RiverConnect’s Alison Trethowan leading the kids through the crafting session.

Santa Claus was in attendance and so were a handful of his elves, who assisted the kids in decorating their ornaments and offered festive face painting.

The News photographers Rechelle Zammit and Megan Fisher were there to capture the Christmas magic.
