Dayboro Remembers:

It certainly does – and I think it will also remember Anzac Day 2015 – the centenary of the ANZAC landing on Gallipoli peninsula – for a long time to come. Three new granite columns adjacent to the Dayboro Cenotaph were unveiled at the Dawn Service. The Service commemorated the lives of the fifteen World War One soldiers named on the Cenotaph who paid the supreme sacrifice. The columns are something very special.  Many hours of research by both the Dayboro War Memorial Association and our Society went into just the few lines that appear on each of the fifteen plaques but it is the skill of the stonemason who created this wonderful monument that really should be commended. I think the monument is better than anyone thought it could possibly be.

Iceland by Liz & Phil 

Many people asked us why we wanted to go to Reykjavik, and I have to admit that the combination of volcanoes, glaciers and wilderness fascinated us, including having seen the Top Gear episode in Iceland where they travelled over some amazing country.  However having been there I find my main memories are of the people, the history, the sagas, and the stories.

Help us build a fort for our Dayboro Rascals

We are so lucky in Dayboro to have a fantastic venue for our playgroup in the ECU building on Williams Street.  The backyard of this lovely old house provides us with grass and shade and lots of room for our little rascals to run around.  Our sandpit, collection of bikes and scooters and play equipment are all well loved and used by the kids.

Sunday 14th June at Dayboro Community Hall.

While you mingle with the performers, enjoy an afternoon tea included in the $15 admission price.

After Atlas was discovered malnourished and neglected on a large paint horse stud, his new owner Tara knew she had a long road ahead with him.  He was a severely malnourished stallion with an umbilical hernia and was in need of training, veterinary care and TLC.
