Halls Heritage Tour - April 2026

A huge thank you to the Heritage Council together with the Department of Planning, Lands and Heritage who sponsored our Halls Heritage Tour for the Southern Forests & Valleys Heritage Festival on the 26^th of April

With this sponsorship the Shire collaborated and created with the amazing community groups who support our halls every day. This tour was a true collaboration and a day of connection where everyone felt entertained, educated, and well fed!
