We are excited to announce that the Australiana Pioneer Village is our first sponsor of our Bicentennial Weekend! They will be helping us recreate the school room upstairs in the Schoolhouse, similar to what it would have looked like in the 1800’s.
The Pioneer Village is also located in Wilberforce. The Village will absorb you into the atmosphere and activities of life over 100 years ago. Visit theapv.org.au to check them out
I’m very excited that we have started the initial advertising for the Macquarie Schoolhouse Bicentennial. We are advertising all our events on our poster. More details will come in time.
We have also sent out our first newsletter this week. Please be sure to head over to the Contact Us page to sign up for our updates.
We are looking to get some sponsors on board to help make this event as amazing as it can be. If you think you may want to be involved, we have many different levels of sponsorship available.
Lastly, if you are connected to the Macquarie Schoolhouse, or interested in its history, or sponsoring the event, please get in touch!
I want to welcome you to our new site and the launch of the celebrations that will take place next year.
The Macquarie Schoolhouse is something to be celebrated! In the lead up to the bicentennial celebrations on the October Long Weekend 2020, we hope we can encourage many people to join us in this historic event.
So please, have a look around, if you or someone you know might be interested, share this information with them.
