Gordon Nightingale
Against the back-drop of Wombat Hill,
You’ll find the Convent Gallery,
It’s an Art and diners heaven;
An absolute must for you to see.
And of course, the Atrium Café,
With a sumptuous local menu,
Paintings on the walls by local artists,
And over the town a fantastic view.
The most wonderful venue for weddings,
A wedding photographer’s dream.
Spectacular scenery as a background,
A sculptured gardens in between.
The gift shop has a range of gifts
Depicting the Convent’s colourful past.
Some items of a serious nature,
Others designed to make you laugh.
Colourful clothes of fashion,
Jewellery with artistic flair,
Shop before enjoying coffee and cake.
You’ll always feel welcome there.
