Here are the details: \n📅 Dates: Thursdays — 23rd & 30th April\, and 7th & 14th May 2026 \n🕙 Time: 11:00 am – 1:00 pm \n📍 Location: 301 Burwood Highway\, Burwood VIC 3125 \n💛 Contribution: $100 for the full 4-week program (includes light refreshments). \nTo register or find out more\, feel free to email me at info@thethriverealm.com.au or call 0477 964 818.
