Coonara Community House proudly celebrated International Women’s Day on Wednesday, March 5th, with a vibrant and successful event that brought together both new and familiar faces. The day was a wonderful opportunity to celebrate and honour the invaluable contributions of women from all walks of life, recognizing the unique strength, resilience, and talent they bring to the world.

The morning was filled with fun activities, including an engaging demonstration on making masala chai (Indian tea), where attendees could sample the aromatic drink, followed by a peaceful cacao ceremony and a soothing sound bathing experience designed to promote relaxation and well-being.

To further support women’s initiatives, we held a three-prize raffle, raising funds for future programs aimed at empowering women in our community. Guests were also treated to a delicious two-course lunch, prepared by our dedicated community kitchen volunteer team, offering the perfect ending to a day of celebration and connection.
