OUT AND ABOUT

Remembrance Day Eumundi

On 11 November, Australians gathered to remember those who served in the many wars and peacekeeping operations around the globe, many of whom gave their lives. Eumundi was no exception as a small group gathered to pay their respects and remember.

The service was facilitated by Donata Page from the Eumundi and District Historical Assn, who welcomed everyone and acknowledged the traditional owners. The ESS choir sang, followed by a short address by GPCAPT (Ret) Greg Ison. The Ode of Remembrance was read, the Last Post was played and a minute’s silence was observed. Following the Rouse, students from ESS read out the names of local men who had given their lives in both World Wars. Wreaths were then laid before the short service came to a close.

Chamber Christmas Party

Members of the Eumundi Chamber of Commerce shared some Christmas cheer at their Christmas Party on 22 November at Matso’s Sunshine Coast Brewery. With delicious food, drinks and a welcoming crowd, it was a perfect opportunity to share some festive fun, reconnect and meet new members. If you are interested in collaborating and connecting with other businesses in 2025 or joining the activities of the Eumundi Chamber visit: eumundichamber.com.au.

Tall Trees thanks volunteers

Marking the end of 13 years of schooling, Yr12 students of 2024 from Good Shepherd Lutheran College were recently honoured and celebrated in an emotional tradition – the Walk of Honour. The cohort and parents assembled to witness the entire student body come together to cheer, creating a moment of pride, reflection and anticipation for the future.

Full Moon Dance

Over 600 people partied the night away to music from Tijuana Cartel, King River Rising, Lucid Safari and DJ Andy V at the Full Moon Dance held on 16 November at the Verrierdale Hall.

The Studio Project book launch & exhibition

Over 200 people attended the launch of The Studio Project exhibition and book at the CA Gallery in Coolum.

Local professional photographer, Christine Hall's book, The Studio Project is a compelling testament to the vibrant artistic community of the Sunshine Coast. Through her lens, Hall captures not only the diverse works of 42 of the region’s artists but also their personal spaces of creativity where the magic of art transpires. The exhibition is running until 10 December.
