Bellingen Market showcases over 240 diverse, interesting and quality stalls from local areas and up and down the coast. Open from 8am – 2.30pm you will find us at Bellingen Park, just south of town.

We love music and present various local bands and welcome buskers to play.

With a good array of hot food stalls and delicious coffee, once you have finished shopping, and need a rest, go check them out, near Church St, corner of Park St and surrounding the stage. Sadly there is limited sitting room in the stage area, so it’s best to grab a bite to eat and sit on the grassy bank or football oval, which has ample room to sit, eat and enjoy the music.

As an inclusive event, everyone is welcome to Bello Markets, we only ask you to be respectful, friendly and consider others. This includes our planet, by recycling your rubbish in the appropriete bins.  The below is coming up this Saturday.

Bellingen High School P&C

The Parent and Community (P&C) association at Bellingen High School is a collaborative volunteering effort between parents and staff who work to improve the experience of our students as they learn and grow into well-rounded citizens. The Bellingen P&C is an pro-active consultative group engaging with educational decisions in our school. Over the past few years, the P&C has worked on initiatives such as lighting for the musicals and takes on a strong role in fundraising for the school. We are proud to be associated with such a diverse school; Bellingen High is a regional leader in sport, music, agriculture and academic competitions such as the regional philosothon. As well as catering for the broad needs of its students, Bellingen High has also achieved the highest per captia HSC results in the Coffs Harbour area for the past two years.

Come and support the Bellingen High P&C on Saturday 21 May as parents, student leaders & students will be standing at the gates with donation buckets to raise funds. When you see them, say hello & support them where you can.
