Decorate gingerbread people

As the calendar flicks over to December and Christmas decorations come out of closets and into shopping centres and onto streets, you may start to crave the taste of gingerbread.

For those more inclined in the culinary arts, making gingerbread men might be part of their festive season fun.

However, even gingerbread men or ladies deserve to go out in style.

Wyndham council will be hosting several gingerbread decoration workshops in Werribee and they are free for all ages.

Situated at the Wedge Street Piazza near Watton Street and the Werribee River just across the road from the Cultural Centre, the workshops will not be hard to spot.

Participants will have creative control over icing and sweets, as they work towards creating their masterpieces and enticing treats.

The first session will run 3-6pm on Saturday 6 December, and is not far from the screening Home Alone 2 at Kelly Park.

Coinciding with the Twilight Christmas Market on Station Place, the second session will happen 4-7pm on Friday 12 December.

And last– but certainly not least– the final chance to join in will be from 10am-1pm on Sunday 14 December.

No bookings are required for any of the sessions.

While in Werribee town, people can have a gander at the big Christmas tree in Station Place and snap a photo at one of the designated selfie spots to share on social media.

Those wanting to share their memories can use the #werribeecitycentre and #wyndhamchristmas hashtags.
