Coming Events Calendar

Community Working Bee Hall Reserve

Over the last four years, our friends and neighbours in Hall have contributed over 110 volunteer person days to the clearing, weeding and planting of some 200 native shrubs on the Hall Reserve.

As Autumn begins, we will take the opportunity to weed and mulch existing plantings and replace some plants that succumbed to the hot dry Summer.

Please bring a wheelbarrow, rake, spade or hoe. Whipper snippers and lawn mowers will also be welcome.

While contributing to the enhancement of our village environment, these community work days are a great opportunity to work beside our neighbours and meet others in our community.

There will be a picnic lunch to celebrate our work together.

Good Friday - Stations of the Cross - combined churches of Hall

From 11:00 am on Good Friday, the churches of Hall (St Francis Xavier Church, St Michael and All Angels Anglican Church, and Wattle Park Uniting Church) will mark the Stations of the Cross walking along Victoria St with pauses for Scripture, reflection, prayer and song at the Stations.

The Stations of the Cross or the Way of the Cross, also known as the Way of Sorrows or the Via Crucis, refers to a series of images depicting Jesus Christ on the day of his crucifixion and accompanying prayers. The Stations grew out of imitations of the Via Dolorosa in Jerusalem, which is a traditional processional route symbolising the actual path Jesus walked to Mount Calvary. The objective of the Stations is to help the Christian faithful to make a spiritual pilgrimage through contemplation of the Passion of Christ.

This is a family event. Children and pets are very welcome.

Those wishing to participate should meet at the car park at the northern end of Victoria St near the Barton Hwy and to begin at 11:00 am.

Good Friday Service

A Church Service commemorating Good Friday will be held at St Barnabas Anglican Church, Charnwood, on Friday 3 April at 9:00am.

Good Friday, also known as Holy Friday, Great Friday, Great and Holy Friday, or Friday of the Passion of the Lord, is a solemn Christian holy day commemorating the crucifixion of Jesus and his death at Calvary (Golgotha). It is observed during Holy Week as part of the Paschal Triduum.

Opening of Exhibition - Palmerville

European exploration and discovery of the Limestone Plains region (1820-1825) was very closely followed by appropriation and occupation of the best of the land for grazing. Through a mixture of land grants for services to the colony (Charles Sturt), compensatory grants for losses incurred (Campbell, Henry Hall), and 'squatting' followed later by purchase (James McCarthy, George T. Palmer), tens of thousands of acres became pastoral runs. Smaller acreages went to horses and cattle, and to fodder and food crops such as wheat, barley and oats.

George Palmer Snr became the first landowner in Ginninderra after his overseer Duncan McFarlane, with a couple of emancipists and a dozen or so convicts occupied land on 'Ginninderry Creek' in 1826. It was three years before Palmer formally applied for permission to bid for 10,000 acres 'at Ginginninderra'.

The Hall Heritage Centre will feature Palmerville and its history in a special exhibition.

The opening of the exhibition will be followed by a light lunch.
