New lease of life for pre-loved wares
ORANGE’S newest pre-loved furniture and decor store is BowerBird, located in Peisley Street opposite the railway station.
The shop has been redecorated with a fresh coat of paint and new signage.
Owner Annette Agius said by opening the shop she was fulfilling a desire she had held for several years.
“There certainly is a real mix, from furniture, including Australian cedar, to antiques, glassware and decor items,” she said.
The shop is open from 10am to 2pm on Saturday and Sunday, and 10am to 5pm Monday to Friday.
Central Square shopping centre is giving Orange schools the chance to win cash prizes, with up to $4500 to be won.
Cash for classrooms
THE Cash for Classrooms campaign aims to provide Orange schools with much-needed funding for equipment and educational resources, upgrades to facilities, excursions and much more.
Seven primary schools are participating: Orange Public School, Catherine McAuley Catholic Primary School, Orange East Primary School, Bletchington Public School and Orange Christian School.
To earn points for their chosen school, shoppers will earn one point for every dollar spent in the centre.
At the end of the campaign period, the three schools with the highest number of points will be awarded $2000, $1500 and $1000 respectively.
The campaign runs until May 8.
Senior Marketing Manager of Orange Central Square Danielle Whilby said the centre is delighted to offer the opportunity to local schools.
