Events are run monthly, dance and music classes held weekly and the Church adn Hall are lovingly maintained for our community to hold their weddings, funerals and celebrations in our community, a place that has such a long history with our families, friends and community members. 

OUR COMMUNITY

The Friends of St Brigids Association Inc formed in 2006 when the local community were informed that the local church and hall were being sold. The community has raised funds and taken out a community mortgage to buy the precinct on behalf of the community to keep the precinct as the 'St Brigids Australian-Irish Cultural Heritage and Community Centre'

Church up on the Hill 

Written by Shane Howard for the Saving St Brigids campaign - The Church up on the Hill' became the rallying song for a community to protect their local church and Hall.
