Australian Nativity Scene (ANS) celebrates 21st year in creation of the Australia’s best traditional and stunning nativity scene. You are welcome to view the spectacular display of 2024.
Wilson Fernandez, the designer, creator, and artist, is renowned for his traditional nativity scene, considered one of Australia’s finest. Over the years, it has become the largest of its kind in the country. Wilson artistically crafts a village and township with handmade huts, stables, buildings, bridges, palaces, houses, and temples, all set amidst mountains, rocks, lakes, and rivers. Each week, the nativity scene presents a theme that tells the story of Christmas, featuring scenes like Mary and Joseph searching for shelter, the birth of Jesus, visits from the shepherds, the three kings' arrival, and in the final week, the Holy Family fleeing to Egypt, concluding the display.
The event is open to all, but children must be accompanied by a parent or guardian.
Cost: Free and open to all age groups.
Viewing time: Strictly by appointment only
Details: Wilson on 0428 927 110 or 9795 6217 (parish office)
