We are heavily involved across the southern part of the Mornington Peninsula and beyond
Our Community
Christmas Carols
We are sponsors of the Spirit of Sorrento Christmas Carols. To aid the carols sing-a-long we created an APP for the audience to view the lyrics on their mobile phone.
To link to the APP, take a photo of the QR code or follow this link.
Memorial Pavers at Sorrento RSL
Jane Byrne from St Joseph’s Sorrento had created 7 remarkable mosaic tributes to our Armed Services. PNMSA was asked if we could assist in placing the pavers at the memorial wall.
They now reside in fitting recognition at the entry to the Sorrento RSL entry.
Hooded Plover Shelters
Our very first project in 2018 was repeated in 2023 and 2025, where we partnered with St Joseph’s Sorrento, Parks Victoria, and the Friends of the Hooded Plover in creating shelters for the endangered Hooded Plovers that nest on our local ocean beaches.
Thank you to Bunnings and the Mornington Peninsula Shire for donating the timber and screws.
With the help of the kids and staff, we happily created over 20 shelters at each event. Another great opportunity to get together and help our wider community.
A very happy Parks Victoria quickly deployed them over the vulnerable nesting sites at our local beaches.
Bench Seats on the Foreshore
The local Foreshore committee needed some help in assembling several benches.
The kits were delivered and the Shed member got stuck into assembling the units.
Great to have the foreshore team come in and help with loading the completed units.
These are now appreciated on our bay beaches.
Supporting the Umbrella Dementia Cafes
In 2024, we supported a lunch date for the local Umbrella Dementia Cafes at the Hangar. It proved to be a very happy gathering, with a BBQ, music and dancing.
The repeat event at the Hangar in 2025 introduced another element, with our own “The Shed Men” band providing the music. So good to see most of the attendees singing along. They seemed to know the words of all the songs!!
Supporting Charity Drives
Our members will always support charity drives.
More Seating at Rye Pier
Parks Victoria needed a few more benches to be repaired.
The units were craned in at the Shed, repairs completed and craned back out to Rye.
Grateful for the crane. They were quite a weight!!!
Mosaic Pavers Installed
Responded to a request for help to complete the installation of pavers at the Penman Reserve.
