Australia Day Celebrations in Newlands Arm

Newlands Arm Residents and Ratepayers Association (NARRA) hosted this year’s fantastic Australia Day event! Over 60 community members joined in the fun, enjoying a classic Aussie sausage sizzle and icy poles under the summer sun.

The day was filled with activities including the raising of the flag, singing the National Anthem, and a friendly game of cricket, ensuring fun for all ages.

We also celebrated a very special local hero: Helen Hall, who was recognised as the Newlands Arm Australian of the Year for her outstanding contributions to our community. Congratulations, Helen, and thank you for all your hard work and dedication!

Thank you to everyone who attended and made the event a memorable one. We look forward to seeing you all next year!

A Wonderful Night at NARRA’s Christmas in July Event!

We want to extend a special thank you to our terrific sponsors:
