Unicornia
Winter has arrived and so too has the magic in Central Geelong. At the end of the rainbow lies Unicornia, a dreamy world of unicorns, mermaids and dragons.

During week two of the school holidays (9-13 July), Unicornia will host a special range of food craft activities that are free for kids to enjoy from 10am-12pm.
