Cook Shire Council announces a free Santa photo session for local families this festive season.
These sessions offer an opportunity for residents to capture special Christmas memories right here in Cook Shire.
Mayor Robyn Holmes said the initiative aligns with the Council’s ongoing commitment to supporting families during these tight economic times.
“By offering free photo sessions at the Cooktown Library, we’re giving families a chance to make special holiday memories closer to home,” Mayor Holmes added.
The Santa photo sessions will be held at the Cooktown Library on Friday 13 December 2024 from 8:30 am until 4:30 pm. Families and individuals can enjoy a 5-minute photo session with Santa, receive a free 6×8 inch printed photo, and have the option to download digital copies or purchase extra prints at their own expense. Christmas-themed craft activities will also be available for all ages to enjoy.
Bookings are essential, as sessions are limited. Community members will book a 30-minute window that best suits them. Santa and his team will aim to ensure your 5-minute photo session will take place during this 30-minute window.
