Past events:
2026 Winter Dinner - 'Cosy' theme
The Hall looked splendid and very inviting for our 'Cosy' Winter Dinner.
A hearty meal was provided by the Grant Street Grocer.
It is a chance for neighbours and friends to get together and at the same time,
to help raise funds for the upkeep of the hall.
The entertainment for the evening, put on by Tim and Paul
was an auction of donated local goods and services and was a lot of fun.

 

  
       
 
 
 
 
 

Acheron Hall Christmas Picnic 2025

You can be forgiven for thinking that it's always Christmas at Acheron,
with our Christmas themed Winter Dinner in August
and our usual Christmas Picnic in December.
Rain and cold weather were forcast for the picnic, but it turned out to be a perfect evening.
Father Christmas made his usual visit to the children, arriving on the Acheron fire truck,
and so everyone was happy.

 
 

Alexandra Library Presentation discussing the writing and designing of the book
Acheron: a History of the District.
Tuesday 18th March, there was a talk given in the Alexandra Library by the major authors,
Elaine Furniss and Andrea Turner and the designer of the book, Beth Thorp.
The talk took the form a powerpoint presentation showing images of the research sources and with many interesting tales of information gathering by the authors, including all sorts of coincidental meetings with people who unexpectedly had valuable information to add to the story.
The afternoon was well attended by over 40 Acheron and Alexandra locals.
The book will be launched at the Hall's Centenary Celebrations on the 15th June 2014.
