Great variety at Christmas market

Hundreds browsed items for sale at the annual Ceduna Christmas market.

Taking place on Friday and Saturday, the market at Ceduna Memorial Hall was packed with stalls selling a variety of items – the perfect chance to pick up a Christmas gift.

Chris Gascoyne was one of the organisers and said she was pleased with how it went.

“We had a lot of stalls and there was plenty of variety, with high-quality items,” she said.

“Lots of people came through which was great.

“Thanks go to Lauren McEvoy, who helped me organise the event.”

Crossways Lutheran School’s choir performed at the market on Friday, while Father Christmas made an appearance on Saturday.
