An apple a day

Tara Lynch is helping out on Red Apple Day.

An apple a day can keep the doctor away and local good Samaritan Tara Lynch is always ready to lend a helping hand along the way to health.

Next Wednesday is Red Apple Day and Ocean Grove yoga teacher Tara is helping the students at Bellarine Secondary College to offer locals a chance to give their health a general boost.

Teachers, students and other staff will be joining Tara for the Apple Day fundraiser with all money raised going to Bowel Cancer Australia.

All locals are being invited to bring along a towel or yoga mat and plenty of enthusiasm to join in the healthy fun next Wednesday between 6pm and 7.30pm at the administration block of the college on Shell Road, Ocean Grove.

All donations will be welcome on the door at the event.

Tara said the event was organised with the aim of giving young students the chance to have an impact on their local community, while reflecting on their own health and wellbeing.“This is another wonderful opportunity for the community to come together and do something for themselves and at the same time help others,” Tara said.

“People today are just so busy and they need to take some time out and take a deep breath.

“This will be a fun and relaxed way of people being introduced to the many health benefits that yoga can bring.”
