SUMMARY:Challenging Walk - The Third Leg of Bondi to Manly Walk – Double Bay Wharf to Circular Quay Wharf
DESCRIPTION:At the end of 2018\, six city councils\, along with other agencies\, decided to create a coastal and harbour-side walking track between two famous beaches in Sydney\, Bondi Beach and Manly Beach. The result of this collaboration is the epic 80km Bondi to Manly Walk. The details can be found on www.bonditomanly.com or the B2M app. We will walk the Bondi to Manly Walk in seven stages together\, walking one stage at a time on the first Tuesday of the month from June to December. \nIn August\, we will do the third leg of Bondi to Manly Walk from Double Bay Wharf to Circular Quay. The walk is approximately 8.7km with an elevation gain of 160m. Since Double Bay Wharf is closed for work at the moment. We will start walking from Edgecliff Train Station which adds 1.1km to the walk. This is a coastal walk with beautiful views on paved terrain. \nThe walk starts at Edgecliff Train Station to Double Bay Wharf and continues along to Darling Point. From Darling Point the track follows on to Rushcutters Bay\, Potts Point\, Woolloomooloo Bay\, The Domain\, Mrs Macquarie’s Chair\, Farm Cove and the Royal Botanic Gardens; all heritage parts of Sydney. Just around the corner is the iconic Sydney Opera House\, Circular Quay and the Sydney Harbour Bridge (Excerpts from www.bonditomanly.com). \nMore details will be sent to members who are participating closer to the event date. \nDATE:  Tuesday 1 August 2023 \nTIME: 9.30am at Edgecliff Train Station (Double Bay Wharf is closed for work) \nCOST: Lunch at your own expense at Sydney Place Dining Precinct \nRSVP TO:  Sandy\, Lining\, Fritzi and Sue at swic.challengingwalk@gmail.com \nRSVP BY: 28 July 2023

SUMMARY:Theatre Group - "The Weekend" - Belvoir Street Theatre
DESCRIPTION:Charlotte Wood – Original Author\nSue Smith – Adapter\nSarah Goodes – Director\n\nFour women have known each other for decades\, and have a friendship that goes with it – good-humoured\, caring\, and forthright when required. But Sylvie has died\, and when the remaining three come together to pack up her beach house\, they find maybe they haven’t been as honest – or as good friends – as they thought. \nAdele (Belinda Giblin)\, a once-well-known actress\, Wendy (Melita Durisic)\, a high-profile academic\, and Jude (Toni Scanlan)\, who ran one of the city’s most celebrated restaurants\, learn things they should have learned years ago. There’s a difference between growing old\, and growing wise. \nAnd at the heart of it all\, an old dog keeps them company\, silently bearing witness to the folly of age\, and the warmth of true friendship. \nCharlotte Wood’s novel really struck a chord with many readers\, so when a playwright as fine as Sue Smith approached us about turning it into a play for Belvoir we jumped. This is a special play – moving\, honest\, thoughtful\, and a gift for three of our finest actors. This is heartland stuff. – Eamon \nThe Weekend is the proud recipient of the Blake Beckett Trust Award. \nDATE: Thursday 10 August 2023 \nTIME: 7.30pm \nVENUE: Upstairs Theatre\, Belvoir Street Theatre\, Gadigal Country\, 25 Belvoir Street\, Surry Hills\, NSW 2010 \nTICKETS: Seniors Concession $72 \nJudith and Cherry have purchased tickets F31 and F32 \n To buy your tickets visit www.belvoir.com.au or ring the box office on 9699 3444 \nPRE-THEATRE: (Optional): Join Judith and Cherry for pre-theatre Drinks and Snacks downstairs at Belvoir at 6.00pm \nRSVP TO: Judith Nguyen at nguyenjm@bigpond.net.au \nRSVP BY: 7 August 2023 \n************************************************************************************* \nTHEATRE GROUP – Looking Ahead in 2023 \nTo enable you to plan your diary for the rest of 2023\, below are the dates and selected plays that we are yet to see.

SUMMARY:Art and Culture - Tour NSW Government House (Tour full)
DESCRIPTION:Our August Art and Culture event is a SWIC Guided Tour of NSW Government House\, the Official Residence and Office of Her Excellency the Honourable Margaret Beazley AC KC\, 39th Governor of New South Wales and Mr Dennis Wilson. Her Excellency is the 28th Governor to occupy this Government House and has held the position since 2 May 2019. \nIn 1788\, soon after a British settlement was established at Sydney Cove\, the first Governor of the colony of New South Wales\, Governor Arthur Phillip\, laid the foundations of Sydney’s first Government House.  It was located in Bridge Street (on the site of the Museum of Sydney) and was home to successive governors until 1845 when Governor Sir George Gipps\, 9th Governor of New South Wales took up residence in the present Government House. Locally quarried sandstone was used for the construction of this new House. Its location and architectural Elizabethan Gothic Revival style was influenced by the existing Governor’s Stables\, that had been completed in 1821 (now the Conservatorium of Music located at the main entry gates to Government House). The present Government House is characterised by castellated towers and other medieval features. \nOver the years the building has been extended\, refurbished and modernised to suit the tastes and needs of successive Governors. Today\, the House holds a significant collection of portraits\, furniture\, decorative arts and gubernatorial memorabilia as a result of Vice Regal patronage. \nPLEASE NOTE: Government House Sydney is the official residence and office of the Governor of New South Wales.

SUMMARY:Monthly Activity - Mary MacKillop Museum and House
DESCRIPTION:Since opening in 1995\, the museum has been engaging visitors with the remarkable story of Mary MacKillop [1842 – 1909]\, Australia’s first Saint and the co-founder of the order Julian Tenison Woods [1832 – 1889]. The museum is housed in the original ‘Practice School’ for novices built in the 1900s. It now offers visitors a window into the mid colonial to the pre federation period of Australian history.\nThe museum is a ministry of the Sisters of Saint Joseph and is located on the site in which Saint Mary of the Cross MacKillop is buried. The Mary MacKillop Memorial Chapel is adjacent to the museum and is an integral part of a visitor’s experience to the site. \nThe museum is steeped in the story of the growth of the Catholic Church in Australia\, English Protestant and Irish Catholic division and the plight of the under classes.\nThe museum and the Mary MacKillop Memorial Chapel celebrate the legacy of a humble woman and the priest\, scientist and explorer who forged a new approach in serving the poor. \nThe outing will be self-guided however\, there is a café on site and we can all meet for a coffee/tea/snack at the café after we’ve strolled around the museum. The suggested time that we spend in the museum is around 90 minutes. \nDATE: Thursday 24 August 2023 \nTIME: 10.30am-12.00pm \nVENUE: Mary MacKillop Place Museum is located at: 7 Mount Street\, North Sydney\, NSW\, 2060\, Australia \nCOST: $8.00 \nRSVP TO: Caren Trafford: swic.activitymonthly@gmail.com   \nCaren Trafford\, Monthly Activity Organiser \n RSVP BY: 17 August 2023 \nPAYMENT OPTIONS \nPayment Option 1 (Preferred): By Credit Card through the Payments section of the website \nPayment Option 2: Online (direct deposit) into the SWIC bank account \nAccount Name: SWIC Inc. \nBSB No: 112-879 \nAccount No: 431-019-281 \nDescription: Mary MacKillop Museum and Home + your initial and surname
